Beloved husband and best friend to Bonnie. Adored 'Grumpy' to his grandchildren Abigail, Harrison and Eric and loved step father of Tamryn, Bernard, Caley, Andrew, Ross and Lavril. He was a loyal brother to his siblings and was so very grateful to his brother Rob for going above and beyond to give him a better life. In accordance with Stephen's wishes, a private family service has taken place.

A pleasure to you in our lives Steve. Will always remember your cheeky smile. You will be missed. RIP Shirley McRae

Shirley McRae

We will always remember Steve's lovely smile and good-natured friendliness. It was a pleasure to witness the loving relationship between Steve and Bonnie. It was obvious that it was a deep friendship as well as a strong marriage. Our hearts go out to Bonnie, knowing what a gap this loss will leave for her. Even though we knew Steve had suffered health problems for a long time, it still comes as such a shock to hear of his passing. He was so brave about his health challenges, that it was easy for us to think he'd somehow always be OK. It's been a pleasure to have Steve as part of our friendship circle. We've really appreciated his attendance at our musical and social gatherings over the years and we will really miss him. Our deepest condolences to the family. May our friendship and prayers help you through this difficult time
