    Bob and Annette…I was quite surprised to read of Steven’s passing as I have lived away from Frankfort for many years now and did not know he had been ill. Blessings on you today as you prepare, once again, to say goodbye to a son. Two, even thirty years apart, it is too many times. Love to you both…Trace McGarey

    To Bob and Annette: I was so sorry to learn of Steve’s death. This has to be so hard on you and Misti too, of course. Our children are suppose to bury us, not the reverse. And I wish it could have happened that way for you.
