I met Steve in 1996 when he did a photo shoot on our car for Rodder's Digest. I'm glad to have met him. The rodding community has lost a good man.

 

That's awful. Steve seemed like a really nice guy, he will be missed.

 

Wow, I was hoping that this was a post with good news.
My deepest sympathy to all his family. He was a great guy.
Glad to hear the benefit will go on.

My heartfelt condolences to Steve's family and friends. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this most difficult time.

 

... I never had the chance to meet the man. From what I've read about him I wish I had the privilege.

 

Not knowing Steve - but following the threads on his illness and p***ing, I feel I know of him now. It is a very sad loss. Condolences to his family and many friends.

My Condolences to Steve's family, I recently lost my dad and know what they are going through.

"May the road always rise to meet you;
May the sun be always at your back;
May a gentle rain nourish your fields and
May you be three days in Heaven
before the devil knows your gone"

I am so sorry to hear this. Steve was a great man and will be missed by many. My condolences and prayers go out for his family.

Everything has already been said ... many times over ...

I hope is cruising Heaven in his 3W ...

 

He will be missed, our prayer to his family.

 

This is very sad news. Steve was a great guy. I first met Steve when he was editor of Street Rodder in the late 80’s – when he moved back to Minnesota to work on Rodder’s Digest we became friends I always enjoyed meeting up with him at local events – I have great memories of catching up at the Rodder’s Digest booth at BTT50’s (with 36 3-window jokingly trying to talk him into free subscriptions year after year) and visiting at the Roadster Swap Meets in the fall. He always had a smile and something good to say. This all happened so quickly, it’s frightening. From what I was told of what he was going through, he gave a valiant fight but is in a far better place now. He was a great guy that will be missed by many.

My thoughts are with his family.

 

I was priviled to talked to Steve in York in 96 his p***ing is for me filled with great sadness I always enjoy his Humor. Farewell STEVE

 

I would also like to add my Deepest Condolences to the family and friends of Steve.

I had the pleasure of meeting him at the Nats North right after he picked up his Coupe. He came out to look at my roadster that also had a nailhead in it. He told me about the coupe he had just got out of a chicken coupe.

A very nice person that made a huge contrabution to the hobby and will leave a lasting impresion on many of the people that he touched.

RIP Steve

 

Sorry to hear.
I send my condolences to family and friends.

 

This is the first time a post got me this choked up. My deepest condolences to his family. He was a helluva guy.

When I expressed interest on the HAMB of doing some freelance rod journalism, he sent numerous PM's with sage advice. Then he offered me a chance to fill a job opening at Motorbooks. Unfortunately, I had just moved back from the east coast to Seattle, and the job was in Minnesota.

I'll never forget his help and generosity, a true, down-to-earth hot rodder in every sense. Godspeed, Steve.
