While in office, Steve obtained his Certified County Commissioner and Advanced County Commissioner Certifications through the Florida Association of Counties.

Steve will always be remembered for his kind and generous nature and his great sense of humor. He will be greatly missed by everyone that knew him.
He is survived by his wife, Bernice; their children Pam, Patrick, Amanda and Donald; grandchildren Madison and Katie; his siblings; and numerous nieces and nephews. Please keep them all in your prayers during this difficult time.
