Steve, your life was cut way too short and has left a hole in our hearts. I will always remember the times growing up when you were busy cleaning the family room. I would say "yup you're cleaning the family room, to go over to Wayne's house." I caught on to that, but the room was clean and I didn't have to do it. I loved that. We have so many memories together, it's hard to think of all of them now as I'm writing this to you. One that's funny that sticks out in my mind is when we were young. It was winter and I watched you freeze your tongue to the metal railing outback. I wondered why you did that? Mom came out to help, but then the next thing you know I did it too. "Yup it does stick." How I laugh about that now, how silly. Then there was your long eyelashes. I remember when we were waiting for the school bus. I would always pick on you every couple of days, and say "wow you have such long eyelashes, any girl would love to have them, especially me" and we would laugh.
You've always assisted Dan and I when we needed help with our home improvement projects. You never asked for anything in return. I will always remember at all my family functions on how you would always pick out the onions and peppers from my salads. There would be this pile on your plate and you would never say a word. Upon arrival to our family gathering, you would freeze and stand there as if no one saw you, but guess what we always did.
I will always hold a place in my heart for you and cherish all of our fond memories. Love you will all our hearts, as you will be watching from above.
Love Sandy and Dan.
