She loved her family deeply and she had a spot for every one of them in her heart. She dearly loved her two little granddaughters and was proud of their every accomplishment. Steve was a beautiful woman with brilliant taste and style. Steve was a wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, daughter in-law, sister, and friend. She will leave a void that will never be filled.
