Send our condolences
Debbie: Memories of our (you, Steve, Donald and I) times together bring a smile to my face and tugs my heart. I was sad to find out he will no longer be with us. My deepest sympathy and heartfelt prayers go out to you and those you love, feel at ease to reach out anytime you need to talk or share memories. As I mentioned earlier, I am unable to attend Steve’s service due to the time leading into sunset. My eyesight isn’t very good in the dark. Bobbie

Sorry for your loss Debbie!
Sorry to hear about Steve passing. Childhood friend from the 60’s Lived on Hoyt Ave. Rest in peace.Thank you for your service.
What a beautiful tribute…what a beautiful family. I really didn’t know Steve that well until we served together on the Horton family reunion committee. I got to know a warm, funny guy. I was in charge of keeping the kids entertained, and Steve eagerly assisted. I think he had more fun with the kids than I did. You shall be missed. My prayers and thoughts are with your family. and I mourn with them, even as we celebrate your time in our lives. Our comfort is one day we all will be reunited.

I share many found memories of me and my Dad and Uncle Cecil, and friends of the family going camping and fishing alot thru the years with Steve. One of my favorite places was down at William’s Dam. Steve was a good man and friend and will sadly be missed. I am truly sorry for your loss to the whole family. Michael Alan and Kristine Dorsey and family.

My sincere condolences to all of Steve’s family. He surely will be missed. There was never any doubt that he was dedicated to his family which is a great virtue in a man. It was easy to see how much he loved the Horton reunions and beating all of us at horseshoes.
Happy trails Steve,
Gary Horton (Son of Keith & Nina Horton).
Always thought about him and my family coming home to Indiana from Oregon.
Debbie, I worked with Steve at Puritan-Bennett for a number of years, and was proud to call him my friend. I remember coming to one of his all night poker games years ago at your home in Mooresville. Lots of stories told and memories made. I was at the funeral last night. I loved the stories about Steve and his relationship with family. There was a lot of love and warmth in the room. So sorry for your loss…God Bless.
With Deepest Sympathy in the loss of your loved one.
I can’t say how empty our Holidays without my brother and Uncle Steve will be without you , I miss you everyday Your little sister
