We all know about him…. Everyone Does…… We all loved his methods……

My late husband, Corny Hudak, was a close friend to A J , Richard and Steven for several years. At the time - AJ Oster was a customer of Plume & Atwood where my husband served as President and AJ served on the Board of Directors. I worked there also and remember a young Steve Oster coming into the office with a great smile on his face. Very friendly to all of us. Throughout the years my husband mentioned the Osters and always wondered where Steve was - he would be sad to learn that Steve passed so young. My sincere sympathies to the family of this smiling, friendly young man.

I was in contact with Stephen until about one month prior his passing.

Although we eventually lived far apart I always looked at him as a special friend and person.  He was indeed one of a kind.

It is with heartfelt sympathy we learn of his passing.

He will surely be missed by his family, friends and society

I just found out this afternoon. Many many fond memories from next door neighbors in Woodbridge-doing deals together- sharing time with you and the family - my heart is saddened by the loos of what was a real true friend. 
Although too young we were all blessed by his presence- will miss him dearly
Our love and prayers to you and the kids  Carol- Tom

Sandra,I am so sorry to hear about Stephen.  I have great memories of working for Stephen back in the 70's. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Stephen was a wonderful man and a genuine nice guy. I had the pleasure of meeting Stephen through his work with the Connecticut Turnaround Management Association. He was the consummate professional and gentleman. He will be missed and my sincere condolences to the family. Philip Kane - CTTMA

I'm so sorry to learn of Stephen's passing. I always enjoyed our conversations. My deepest sympathies to Sandra and his entire family.

sandy, jerry and i just got the news today. needless to say we were very shocked. our condolences to you aaron and sara. so sorry we can't be with you at this time. know that our hearts go out to all of you. love joan and jerry

Stephen was a wonderful man.  It was an honor to know him.  I can still hear him and Rusty speaking together throughout the night.   He will be missed more than words can say. Sandy,  I will always be here for you, because of that special bond that God made sure we have.   My prayers continue for you and your family.  Much love, Bev

My condolences to the Oster family.  I do remember the excitement at the AJO Providence office in 1978 when Sarah was born - that week in March was when my employment began with the Oster family. Stephen always had a smile and words of wisdom to share.  May he be at peace.

We are so sorry to hear of Stephen's passing. He was a wonderful man and I only have the fondest memories of him. Our deepest sympathies go out to all of you. May his memory live on in all of you and your children.

Sandy, I cannot tell you how sad I am to hear about Steve's passing.  This is not what I wanted to read first thing MOnday morning nor the email I would have liked to get from you.  I am so glad I had the chance to meet him and your warm and loving relationship was quite obvious to anyone in your presence.  Yes, I have been in your shoes and they are not the ones we want to wear.  You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers and I am here for you always.
Love, Shelli Rafkin

I fondly remember my days spent in Bolivia with Stephen by my side while we were working on a metals contract.  Unbeknownst, Stephen made a sizeable donation in my name to a foster child I was sponsoring in the area.  That's just the kind of guy he way!  He will be missed.  Tom and Joyce Rose

May Steve's memory be a blessing for all those who loved him....He lived next door & was my 1st date. (I was 14, & we double dated with Dickie and his wife.) I loved Steve's dad and often sat with him in his back yard, learning about life. (i.e. "It's not a sale until you ring it up on the cash register.") xxx Jane Gleklen Wyeth

Sandy,
We are so very sorry to read of Steve's passing. He was such a good man, and always so pleasant whenever business brought us together. Our deepest condolences to your family.

Me and Sherri are saddened by the great loss. We fondly cherish the happy memories. Me, Sherri, Robert and Jerry Gonicber will miss him very much.
Love, The Gonicbers

To the Oster Family, my deepest condolences on the loss of Steven. I worked with Steven for years at the family business and can say that he always found time to stop and ask about you, your family and if you were happy doing what you were doing. He will be greatly missed in the business world, and by family absolutely. Carmine "CAP" Rego.

Heartfelt condolences are offered to your family with the loss of your husband.  May the Hearer of prayer grant you peace and comfort. (Psalm 65:2)

Please accept my deepest condolences. Steve was such a beautiful person taken from us too soon. He always gave me hope and encourage me to pry and to never loose my faith. I will miss him and good humor.
I pray Adonai to help his family ease the pain left by his loss.
