| I have good memories of Steve when we worked together briefly at General Cable, on Water St., Williamstown. I once made him some business cards for when he used to be Santa Claus at Christmas time. He even stopped by my house once when I lived alone in the Town of Florida, and it was a very nice thing to do. He was well liked by all. Farewell, Steve. | | from: Gregory Lewis | on: 08-04-2015 |
