To my friend Steve, I will always remember the many happy times we spent together, at Wilson, camping, fishing at Lake Nippasing, and so many other times. May the Good Lord keep you forever.

Dear Sandy and Family. As I prepared to leave my heartfelt condolences, I read through those already sent. What wonderful and comforting words and memories have been left for you. Take comfort in those and your own memories. I pray for your comfort in this trying time.
To the family of Stephen, we are so sorry to hear that Stephen passed. We got to meet him while owning Memquisit Lodge, he was such a gentle, soft and caring man. He always looked forward for his trip up north. Take care everyone.
Dear Sandy, Stevie, Peter,
We are so sorry for your loss. Stephen was a wonderful man who lived a great life and gave so much to his family and to the whole community. We are blessed to have been his friend and we especially enjoyed all he did for the Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts. We regret we cannot come up from North Carolina for the funeral but will keep you and your family in our prayers.
Love,
Jim and Joann Briggs
I am so sorry for your loss of Steve. He had some great stories to tell for sure! However, his smoked fish was legendary and delicious. He will be missed by all who knew him. Peace to you all. Jo Zimmerman
I worked with Stephen for 13 years in the state office -Division of Adult Services. Stephen was a food service inspector and he was the kindest person, and always smiling. I am very sad as he was a good friend and he is sorely missed. My prayers and condolences to Sandy and family.
Dear Steve, What a joy it is to have you as my brother. I have an entire life of \”Steve\” memories. I\’ve been so proud of you for all of your accomplishments. I\’m especially proud that you finally got the homecoming you deserved for your army service. I will never forget that day at the airport! I\’m sorry for all you have had to endure but so proud of your perseverance throughout . I cant imagine our family without you. I know that God came and took you in his arms and told you it was ok to sleep..sleep in heavenly peace. Love you forever. Gretch 💖🌠
I am so sorry for your loss. I worked with Steve (Captain) at The Rochester Friendly Home, as co-assistant manager. He was a true gentleman, great cook (could never duplicate his braised short ribs!), talented wood worker (I still use two end tables he made) to name a few. One of a kind!
Where to begin. Steve along with his brother, Doug ,were my husband’s childhood friends and then mine as well. We have many, many fond memories of Steve. And stories! He was a groomsman in our wedding many years ago! He was a wonderful man and we feel privileged to have known him. We are so sorry for your loss . Pat & Donna Brown
Dear Sally and The Bligh Family,
May the peace that comes from the memories of love shared with Steven comfort you now and in the days ahead.
So sorry for your loss.
Captain Bligh ,
You will be sorely missed! You kept our group afloat with your humor and positivity. We all loved hearing your funny stories and especially your beautiful veteran poem. Our group will miss you greatly. You and Sandy became part of the Parkinson Family. If there is fishing in heaven, I am sure you already caught a big one!
With Love and intent,
Tiffany
Beautiful life story , I can see why Steve was such a great man with such a wonderful life from childhood to the end. He was my boss at the Friendly Home and we all loved him , he was kind and fun ! I was happy to be able to see him and meet his wife Sandy many years later when he joined my daughter Parkinson’s group. He still has his great smile and fun loving attitude. I will keep him and his loving family in my prayers .
Dear Peter and Jenny, We were so very sad and sorry to hear about Peter\’s dad \’s heading to Heaven. He\’ll definitely be missed here on our time, on our Earth. But, he\’ll be happy in Heaven and watching over all his loved family and friends until you get there with him. We totally believe that will be. God bless and love you and keep you safe and happy until then. Love, Aunt Katie and Uncle Bob
