Stephen was a devoted son, brother and uncle who loved spending time with his family. He will always be remembered for the unique gifts that he gave to his nieces and nephews each Christmas. From a young age, Stephen was a natural athlete and driven competitor. Whether on the football field, in the weight room or playing a round of golf with his family and friends, Stephen always worked as hard as he could to be the best in all his pursuits. Throughout his years as an educator and coach, he made it his mission to instill a strong work ethic, winning attitude and love of competition in the young people he worked with each day. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, students and all who knew him.
