It has been a blur of time in these past 7 years my Brother. I know you're standing watch over us down here . Tell my precious Mary hello for me . We will all be together again.

6 years have passed by rather quickly. I still think of you often especially when Bob Perers and I talk on the phone. We always say Steve would have remembered that about a Marine we were stationed with or in an old picture. You were always there when you were needed and will always be mine and Gunney Peaks favorite.

Five years have passed as quickly as a Swoop from Lejeune to home and back . Still miss you and always will.

Four years has passed so quickly for me but I know it's like four days to you in Heaven . We all miss you much but know you are in no more pain and are the healthy young Marine I met at Camp Lejeune way back in 1971 .

Steve , 3 years tomorrow and you still look the same and I have gotten a year older and fatter . Plus I move a bit slower than last year. I know life here on earth is temporary and these old bodies of ours are going to get worn out . Still miss you and the positive attitude you always had . Love ya Brother
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Two years tomorrow and it seems more like two months . I sure miss the "Swoop" stories and the great times Brother . I feel secure knowing you are up there watching me . Semper Fi and see you when I get there .

A year tomorrow , how is it possible? I still visit you every once in a while , or at least where they buried you. I know that you are not there , but at the "Pearly Gates of Heaven " standing guard (as any Marine worth his salt would do) and waiting on me . I know I will see you again and that you will have everything in order by the time I get there.I also know that you suffer no more , and watch over me , as I need it . See you later my Brother .

Steve was a good friend to me, and always loved picking at me. I will miss him always. My prayers go out to rose, steven, brandi & jordan. May God comfort your hearts.

I consider myself a very lucky man to have crossed paths with a young Marine from Ky that afternoon in the squadbay at Camp LeJeune N.C. We bonded pretty quickly and traveled thousands of miles together on ships , trucks, tanks , but mostly "The Red Airplane " as Steve dubbed my new Red Chevelle . I can say that I have been fortunate to have known such a great and gracious man . I have lost my best friend but know I will see him again. My Prayers are for all the Family members involved . SEMPER FI and see you in Heaven Brother.

About 25 years or so ago i had the pleasure of meeting our city;s chief. He liked 30 weight coffee, by the way,lol. I worked at the Quality Quick on 3rd shift amd a drunk man came driving up on a backhoe, well, I was scared he was going to run through the building and called 911. Steve Osteen and George Drea came and helped me out. He reassured me that the man was harmless and I believed him. From that night on I alwasy had his (30) weight coffee ready when he came to check on me. You will be missed. I am glad to have had the pleasure to have known him, always a smile on his face. I am sorry for the family's loss, but, God has gained an amazing angel.

Steve was a great guy and friend. He always had me laughing with his stories of war, Christmas on the snow plow, and dressing up as Santa. You will be missed by so many and never forgotten.
