I am lost for words. This was a shock to me and hubby (firstatv). Our hearts go out to Sue and the kids. We both were lucky enough to meet Steve at the 2006 buggy bash. He will be missed and remembered always. Here is a video memorial dedicated to Steve.
Sorry I didn’t get this posted sooner.

Deb,

That was a beautiful tribute to Steve. Made me cry, but also made me smile. Thank you so much.- Sue Hopkins

that is a truely beautiful video... Thank you for making such a wonderful tribute... Sue, God bless you and your family, and as the irish pray says:

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

If there is every anything my family or I can do for you or your family, please, never hesitate to ask!

John

Dearest Deb:
I knew from the very beginning of all of this that it was only a matter of time before you would put this together. As I would expect from you it is absolutely beautiful. I was there as you well remember. God bless you and thank you for this exceptional piece of work.

Thanks for the kind words about the video.
I was more than happy to do the video, I just wish I had more pictures and video of Steve.

Great job and a fitting tribute, Deb!

Steve didn't just make friends AT BuggyNews. By creating this forum (and the Yahoo CORB group before that), Steve created a place where we could all gather and get to know each other. By emphasizing the family atmosphere and of helping each other deal with the challenges of owning an inexpensive import--AND arranging group gatherings like Paddys, Steve set the stage for us to create enduring friendships that can last a lifetime.

For that I will always be in his debt. Thank you Steve.

My condolences also. So sad to see someone pass on at such a young age.
One of our comforts is knowing that we all go to the same place when WE pass on, and that we will meet our loved ones again. Small comfort at this time, I know, but it has helped me before.
Regards and prayers to Steve's family,
John
