Steve was an enthusiastic, dedicated supporter of the Nelson Group of the Association of Administrative Professionals (and Honorary member!). He presented countless workshops and gladly shared his expertise with our members. He had a quirky sense of humour. His wit could make a mundane topic entertaining. He will always be with us through the knowledge he shared to make us better administrators and the gift of humanity he shared to make us better people.
Condolences to the Smith family.

So saddened to hear of Steve's passing.
I have had a lot to do with him over the years when presenting to our group. It was always a pleasure to introduce him. He also helped on my home computer when needed. He was always the person to contact to ask questions and will miss him terribly. May your family find peace in knowing that he was loved by many. Love to you all.

I met Steve while working at king salmon. We shared many morning tea coffees and treats, passing hello´s but most fondly I remember the conversations we talked about everything. He shared stories of his life experience and always spoke fondly of Kate. He was a true treasure of a person and I am forever grateful to have had the privilege of meeting him.
