Steve was born on July 22, 1971 in Houston, Texas. He spent most of his toddler years at Papa Carl and Grandma Helen’s farm in Elgin. It was a special time and place for him. His family remembers him putting on a hard hat and “working” in the warehouse of his parent’s company as a young boy.
Steve was a boarding student at San Marcos Academy all four years of high school, graduating in 1989. He was extremely active and well liked at the Academy. This was his first of several times in San Marcos. He kept being drawn back to the town he came to know as home.
Everyone Steve met knew him to be kind, generous and genuine. He was the one to call, the one to tell it like it was and the one always up for an adventure. His travels took him on many trips and to many golf courses. A favorite for both was his beloved trip to play golf at St. Andrews in Scotland. He also enjoyed vacations to St. Croix, Hawaii, Cabo San Lucas and Colorado just to name a few. Family and friends all have their own memories of trips near and far with Steve.
