Steve was a family man who loved their annual family Gooch fishing and beach trips, and their family July 4th fish fry, celebrating him and our independence. He enjoyed trips to Cherokee, scratch offs, and especially loved Nascar and fishing. Steve was a man of his word and gladly did so much for so many. He will be dearly missed by all.
