So sorry to hear about Steve long time since the Streamwood days every time I heard Columbus Ohio come up i thought about the Salerno family.

I knew Steve as a wonderfully devoted husband and father, steadfast and lovingly supportive of his family. And, brilliant with construction work and equipment too, always knowing the very best ways to get a job right. My prayers go for Debbie and family for comfort, peace, and unending fond and treasured memories of their lives together.

Debbie,
So very sorry to hear about your loss. May God keep you and your family during this difficult time.
De Baumgardner & family - May 17, 2015
Please accept our condolences. I remember how open and warm you both were while we were at a car show with Dave and Pam. You are lucky to have had a great life with your soul mate. Always know he will be with you no matter where you go or what you do, he is only a heartbeat away, watching and guiding with the help of The Father. My faith carried me through at the time I needed it as well. Be well, don’t get lost in expectations, and take care of yourself with quiet little thoughts. Angels do exist, and you now have your own.
Sincerely, De in Arizona
