My sincerest condolences to the entire Steeb family. I remember Mr. Steeb from years ago going to school with Katie and he was always super friendly to me. I wish I could attend the visitation but please know I am there in spirit. Hugs to you all and Mr. Steeb, may your body and spirit resist in eternal peace.
Thank you for your kind words, Lisa. It’s been a long time since we have seen you, but it seems like yesterday.
To My Dear Family,
We are so sad to hear of Dave’s passing. We are praying for all of you who loved him so well. My cousin will be missed by so many.
Today, I thought of a portion of a poem by Alfred Lord Tennyson
“ Though much is taken; much abides” Though he is gone too soon, David will abide in all of you.
Much love and hugs,
Your Cousin
Gretchen and Dave Foster
