We invite you to use this site to share your memories of Steff. Your pictures, stories, and videos bring great consolation and joy. We love seeing his smile or hearing his voice. We especially love to hear how Steff touched you or impacted you in any way, however small. All of this will be especially be a precious gift to his daughter Malaya (8).
