Executive Director of NJ Buddies from 1995-2012

Loving father, grandfather, son, brother, friend & more...
& even if you weren't one of those...
he treated you like you were.

He loved his family, he loved the ocean, he loved life...

It was a pleasure knowing, working with, and befriending a saint.
Steve was a GIANT in the world of HIV/AIDS...
He will be sorely missed. May he rest in peace.

Funeral mass will be held Monday, Jan 9th, 2012 at 10:45 a.m. at the Mount Carmel Church,
