I am so saddened by the passing of this wonderful man.

My best man at my wedding 34 years ago.
In our early 20s he and I spent many a long night discussing what we wanted out of life and he was a great strength to me at a time I really needed it.

His parents were so wonderful to me at this same time, and acted like my own parents at my wedding, amazing.

When a mutual friend of ours needed help we both rushed to be there and Steve said to me "that he and I were the same, we didn't have to see our mates very often, but if the call came we would both be there, anytime no matter what".

It's been 5 years since l last saw him, and I wish he had put the call out to me to have been able to talk with him one more time, I would have been there in hours...

Fond memories of Steve will be with me for the rest of my days, a nicer bloke than Steve I have never met, and never will !
