Steve was a great and caring doctor and colleague. He had a great sense of humor that was much appreciated when things were busy or stressful. He will be missed!

I've known Steve since I got here in the late '90's. I have always appreciated his humor, his willingness to help patients and other doctors, and his practicality. He brought a blue collar work ethic to his profession.
He and I had many conversations in the halls about a variety of topics but usually helping each other deal with "situations" we found ourselves in. He was a great doc and friend.
We will honor his memory.

Steve and a few others, but mainly Steve, single handily willed me to go to college. He once told me in HS as juniors that I was smarter than more than half the people in our class? That I thought a great deal and had skills. I scoffed at him, but he helped me to think about who I was and what I could do. In some sense he was telling me I had more opportunity than him I guess, and that I didn't try hard enough. I blame Steve for helping me to go further in education.

I mostly knew Steve as a work friend, we never hung out much outside of work but boy do I regret that. Steve always made me laugh. He and I could talk about anything from the most heartfelt to the most nasty and cynical. I could always be myself around him and know that we would get each other. I look back now on the texts he sent me and laugh like he is right here. Steve had a positive effect on me and the world and will be remembered forever.

While working with Steve at the hospital, I watched him treat everyone we walked by with genuine respect during rounds. He was not only a compassionate doctor but a great human being. He effortlessly knew most everyone’s on a first name basis from nurses to cafeteria staff. Watching him and learning from him made me a better human being. Rest In Peace!

To Steve's kids: Your dad was a great doc, a great colleague, and most importantly a really great guy. I really enjoyed working with him and taking care of patients with him on the wards over the last couple of decades.
My deepest sympathies

Losli could make anyone laugh. Capable of making a joke out of nearly anything. And yet so caring, honest and true in listening and reflecting about real stressors and the honest difficulties in life.

I will miss him dearly.

He was loved by myself and my family.

I hope he’s golfing in some Jordan’s while looking down on us all.

When I was a resident I used to work with him, he would come in and see his patients always had a great sense of humor and a smile on his face. I was always, for the patient was going to good care from him. Early in my residency I did an elective out of this clinic which I really enjoyed, I learned a lot we talked a lot. Course now working with him for over 25 years he is greatly missed. I still can’t believe he’s gone

Steve, we had some wonderful times. It was always fun to have some sarcastic banter. We both know being from Colorado was always a one-up on being from Wyoming. Love you man.

I met Steve in 1st grade. His Mom met my Mom and we were thrown into friendship.. He was not so friendly at first but we managed to find a few things to do.

When Steve moved across the street from my mom's house on Knapp, he got to know her. She was a good baker in her late eighties. I'm not sure how this happened exactly but Steve wanted to learn how to bake cakes and she taught him. He was a fast learner and an excellent cake baker. Always a beautiful chocolate cake on their kitchen counter. When my mom was dying, Steve came to the hospital to see her and helped support her and me through that hard time. Later, when I moved into my mom's house, I would call over there and Steve would stand in his dining room and I would stand in my living room and we would be able to see each other while we talked. For some reason that was funnier than just walking across the street to talk. He had a bullshit detector second to none, and I respected and loved him (and he also drove me nuts!) xxx

Steve had an uncanny way of connecting with people just by having a conversation and being willing to listen to people's stories. It was one of things that made him an amazing doctor and educator. The hospitalist office will forever be a little quieter and less fun without Steve's quick wit and raucous laughter.

Steve spent time with my family during summers for a couple years. My dad was his Uncle Jerry. Star Wars hadnt been out too long. My friends wouldnt STOP talking about it to the point I refused to see it. Steve and I talked about space and science a lot. We went to the local museum, and he gently told me Star Wars was NOTall sparkle and special effects. Mostly, he told me that it would change movie making and I would regret not seeing it in the theater. I did. He was right. It was amazing.

When I visited him, his mom and brother in Rock Springs, he teased me about all the pictures I took of trees. I still take pictures and hug trees.

Finally, he and my dad built a chess board when he was visiting us. I will pm the picture to you.
