I love you so much Uncle Steve. You will forever have a huge place in my heart. You always made me feel like a princess, always made me feel so special. Your furry mustache kisses were the best!!! They made me giggle every time! You walked me down the aisle at my wedding - I don't know that anyone will ever truly understand how meaningful that was for me. The moment before we walked arm in arm down the aisle you gave me this look...like you were SO proud of me and who I was becoming. It will never ever leave my memory. You represented our family that day and said the words that gave me away to a beautiful new chapter in my life. Thank you so much Steve. Even as sick as you were that day you still had the humor (with a smile on your face) to warn Ryan of the possible repercussions if he were to ever do me wrong!! We will miss you so dearly, but the comforting realization our family is coming to is that this is a celebration! We are remembering your life and all the wondrous and amazing things you experienced, and rejoicing your next life that is free of pain and suffering. I know you have some pretty amazing company with you now and that you are watching over us all with love. I love you Uncle. P.S. Grandma and I planted a Dogwood tree today in your honor!
