![]() ![]() I always thought the outdoors are God’s greatest cathedral where one might venture out in an effort to look in. Truth is, I don’t know much by way of churches or funeral homes. I wanted to send my sincere condolences and share a few words. I will miss him dearly and treasure his memory! God Bless you, Steve! The memory of his big heart and love of music will stay with me always, but especially his always positive go-get 'em attitude which lifted me up so many times as a very young man trying to navigate adulthood. I learned how car axles were replaced and what happens when a wheel bearing goes out and you're far from home! He did this in the driveway of my parents home, an operation that took several hours and asked for not a penny from me in recompense, instead encouraging me to keep playing music, a promise I made to him then and have continued without stopping all these 50 years later. ![]() We shared a relatively short period of our lives together, maybe ten years all told, but he extended his generosity to me on many, many occasions, the most selfless being the repair of my first car after a nightmarish road trip on snow and ice coming home from a gig in Madras with my rock band. Steve was an incredibly positive, dynamic spirit amongst the people he called his friends and I was honored to be counted as one of them. God has you now and I know you're looking down and seeing the many lives you've impacted. I hope you know that you were loved by many and losing you is a hard pill for us all to digest. Becky you will definitely be missed my dear. Lol I use to say, "I always wanted a white friend Becky" and she would say something goofy in return and then we'd laugh and I'd say, "You know you my favorite white girl" lol she never took my words as anything other than love. Here I am a lil black girl from the hood having drinks and good times with my white lawyer friend. I would say, "my friend practiced law" and then call Becky to get legal advice. I was so happy to have a friend that was an attorney. I could never step into her home and not be forced to have a white Russian. I met Becky through a mutual friend and she instantly became a part of my very small circle. First, condolences to the Williams and Random family. ![]()
