Steven loved to clown around and always had something funny to say. He couldn't keep a secret to save his life. His eyes and big-beautiful smile spoke volumes. He loved his family, we love him, and was a blessing to all of us. He had a loving and generous heart, but most importantly he was a believer and a faithful servant. Steven's favorite bible verse was John 3:16 -- 'For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life'. Let us all take comfort that he is with our Savior watching over us and that he is healed in God's glory. Steven's parents and brother want to thank all his extended family and friends for all your prayers of comfort and know that it is our honor and privilege to have Steven be a blessing to all of you as well. "GOD IS GOOD, HE IS GOOD INDEED!"
