Heart of Gold. Loved by many, Steve will be sadly missed. Steve, you are greatly missed, huge holes in many hearts.

Steve, you were a shining star in my life!!!
You always brightened my day, and I keep finding things you left here for me, useful and good things. And so thoughtful. Oh dear Steve, your kindness was so genuine and sincere. You gave from the heart, and with nothing expected in return. All the wonderful memories, I loved you sweetie. You were a blessing in my life! And in the lives of so many others, oh dear Steve, you meant so much.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

We are all so sad, Steve, still, tonight. I want to write your memorial to honor your memory, the man who you were and what good things you did for your mother, brother, nephew and your many friends. But I can't get all out yet, I am still in shock. Michelle is too, we cried tonight together on the phone, we want this to be untrue, we miss you so much. This is November 3 at night. Michelle put a red ribbon on a tree near where you were hit. She is so sad, sweetie, we comfort each other. You gave so much, even now, because of you, Michelle & I can grieve together, and not so much alone, because of our mutual understanding.

When I hear a Harley coming down the street, I know it won't be my friend coming to brighten my day with laughs and jokes and enrich my day with interest in my life, and genuine love for me and spending time with me.

I was truly glad when I heard his bike ride up my driveway, he did not always call, and he did not need to. He was family. We would have tea with honey, he liked lemon too, and we'd get a little high with herb. Sometimes he would bring a pastry or even drop one off for me when I wasn't home. He liked my special cannabutter cookies and milk with them.

We would watch youtube videos of music or comedy and laugh so much.
We would go for rides, he was always careful with me on the back.
But he finally went down.

I'll never ever have another friend like my Steve. The sadness and empty feeling is here because you meant so very much to me, and I accept it, would not change the pain, you are worth it. I know you would feel the same about me, Steve. I miss you terribly. So does everyone.

The other day, your brother gave me an opened bag of cat treats. He said you gave the stray cats treats. I'm not surprised at all. Chester will enjoy them, when I have the heart to open the package you last sealed.

I'm not done writing about what a cool guy Steve O was, but all I can think of right now is how much I miss mybest friend. All the good times and good things with Steve are inside my head and my broken heart. From the first time I saw him in Smedley's, to the last time, in the hospital. And all the times in between. Steve was caring, sweet, calm and I never was intimidated by him. He cared for the people he loved, so very much. I miss him.
