I am truly saddened of this news. Stevie was one of the first friends I met in this hobby he loved so much. We would always talk for hours on the phone about how to build different parts and then get to meet up once a year at our show.
He always wished we lived closer to each other.
My thoughts and prayers are with Stevie and his family and I will miss him.

I never met Steve or even talked to him on the phone but he has built several parts for me on my two trucks. I can say he was simply the best of the best and always professional. Will be truly missed.

Wow, such a shock to hear!

I never knew Steve and I only dealt with him once (I was looking to buy a second set of Alcoas in the next couple of weeks too) but thank you Steve for all your contributions to our little hobby and my heart goes out to your family and friends right now.

Time to rest easy buddy.

I remember it clearly when IHBuilder 1st appeared on the Garden with his 9370 dump trk build, looking for ideas how to tip the box with hydraulics... I remember it was March, but can't remember if it was 07 or 08... surreal that it's been more than a decade already.

Steve's makeshift lathe at that time to turn out his 1st set of wheels, was a cordless drill held in a vise & a hand file, his mill was a 4" side grinder ...and hot dayum how he killed it!!! Those Daytons looked fantastic

Steve has done some work for me over the yrs, I didn't have to tell him much, he knew what I wanted & hammered it out perfect every time... he was a lil slow though at getting it done, too many irons in fire, everyone wanting a piece of his time, but his quality craftsmanship worth the wait.

I met Steve in person at Cabin Fever Jan, 2012 & again in St Louis Oct 2012 along with his family, his wife helped cook us dinner Saturday afternoon while we were hard at play, his kids were awesome to hang out with. Steve was talking about a family trip out west this summer, it would have been the highlight of my summer to have had them stop thru at my farm.

Great friend, honest, hardworking, no bullshyt - stand up guy!

R.I.P. buddy
