Sad to hear this. Very sorry for your loss 🌹
Our sincere condolences and sympathies to Sue and the family. Stephen will be missed.
Have many fond memories of serving the membership as general chairmen for the BLET, especially the many negotiations we sat through together. We were saddened to hear of his passing. Janie and I send our sincere sympathy and prayers of comfort to you Sue and the entire family. Steve and our good buddy Willard Knight were both taken much too early from this life.
Friends, Ray and Janie Wallace

Stephen was a gentleman in every way. We bother served the BLET at the same time. It was my great honor to call him friend and most importantly, Brother in Christ and union Brother!
I will miss him but know where he is! Blessings to all of his family and friends! Tim Smith State and National Chairman emeritus.
Met Steve summer of '69 when I hired out at Norfolk & Western; both of us were fireman/hostlers in Decatur with him above me in seniority. He was always friendly and a gentleman as we progressed through our respective careers. Whenever possible I would refer to him as a man with integrity and character no matter his career as a union man or mine as (later) management. It was an honor to know Steve and Susie. Seems a long time ago, yet seems like just yesterday.
