I am sending along my thoughts and prayers to you and your family Judy.
I worked with Steve at the DECH for a number of years and have great memories of his sense of humor in difficult and often stressful situations.
I have also had the pleasure of being in the audience while he was performing.
A very gifted musician and all around great guy.
Blessings

Sincere condolences Judy and the Family. Stepen was larger than life with such a great personality. He had a way of making everyone feel comfortable and included, no matter what the setting.The music community has lost another member and teacher far too soon. Stephen, you will be missed by many. Rest in peace you beautiful soul.

I read this with much sadness for family and friends of Stephen. My memories of Stephen is when he came to MIRAMICHI Oct. 22, 2005 to play his sax at the wedding reception of my daughter Tara and her new husband Aaron Spencer. After secretively booking Stephen I then found out that Tara and Stephen had worked together at the DECH. ( so fitting). He was a very gifted person. Valorie (Druet) Walsh

So shocked and sad when I heard of Steve’s passing. He was an amazing saxophone player and instructor, and will forever be my saxophone inspiration and idol. I’ll miss our lessons together and long chats after. Judy and the rest of the family- you’ll be in my thoughts and prayers, the loss of a loved one is so heartbreaking but God will comfort those who grieve.

Judy and family, I was so sorry to hear of Stephen’s death. I worked in PACU with Steve the last couple of years before he retired. He was my weekend partner and yes, I was privileged to hear many Daniel stories. He often told me stories of all different places/ parties where he played his sax, it was a pleasure to hear him play. He will be missed. Linda Hillman

So sad to hear of the sudden passing of Steve; he was a hard worker and I had the pleasure of working with him at the hospital. His big heart flowed over in his personality with the clients and especially when he spoke of his music but such a treat for those who knew him when he was playing his music.

Very sad news to hear of Stephen's passing and my sincere condolences to the entire family. We were class mates in Chatham and members of the Cadet and Town bands. I would see him often in recent years when he was in Saint John playing. An amazing talent and a wonderful friend. We will all miss him dearly.

Kathy, Sharon and all family members, I was so sad to hear about Stephen. He lived a great big life, full of joy and music and laughter. I’m sure his memory will live on forever through his family and friends. Most Miramichiers that I grew up with have a Stephen story or two. He will be greatly missed by so many for so many reasons.

So so saddened at the passing of a lifelong friend and fellow musician. He was truly “One of a Kind” and could put a smile on your face no matter what your mood. Many many warm memories of our jam sessions, Foolishness with “The Boys”and the Nicknames he had for everyone he met.
Our most sincere condolences to Judy,Kathy, Sharon,Maurice,Nathan and extended family members

Judy and family;
We were shocked and saddened to learn of Steve's passing. Tony so enjoyed working with Steve over the years, a few drives in his sports cars and his friendship. We both enjoyed a few "rivets" and great conversation in your sunporch! Steve was such a talented musician and we happily enjoyed listening to him play at different venues. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers at this time and through the difficult days ahead.
