I remember when you moved to Lost Nation from Davenport and became my neighbor. We had some pretty fun and interesting times. I remember when Brad and Keith were caught burning boxes in the back of the shed. Your dad saw them and started yelling at them. Also taking eggs out of the hen house and making mud pies. I also remember the hog roast that you put on and Steve donated his hog. That was a sad day for him but it was very tasty. I loved your mom, she made everyone laugh. I was so glad to see her and Steve when they came to dad’s visitation. We just lost touch after graduation and when I heard of Steve’s passing, that made me really sad. I did hear that Steve turned out to be a pretty good cook but I don’t think I ever had the pleasure of tasting his cooking. Steve was such a fun person to be around and he will be missed by everyone who knew him.
