A well-loved man, Steve enjoyed meeting new people from every facet of his life while maintaining old friendships from childhood.

Steve was a master at home improvement and could repair anything. He enjoyed barbecuing for family and friends and never saw a campfire he did not like. Steve was an avid golfer, angler and never missed a Canucks or Lions game. Steve was known for his quick wit and love for teasing friends. He was always happy to give his assistance to anyone who needed it. His love for animals also gave him many four legged friends throughout his life.
