It is with heavy hearts and deep respect that we honour Steve’s life and the legacy he leaves behind. As a public servant, a leader, and a neighbor, Steve embodied dedication, courage, and care. In his work with the fire department, he stood on the front lines—not just in the heat of emergencies, but in the quieter moments of preparation, mentorship, and ensuring others’ safety. His service mattered.
Beyond the badge and uniform, Steve was someone who impacted lives in personal ways. He was a guide, a protector, and a symbol of reliability in times that often felt unpredictable. To his family, friends and colleagues: please accept my sincerest condolences. Losing someone who held both a public role and a personal one is deeply painful. May you find comfort in the memories shared, in the stories told, and in the knowledge that Steve’s contributions have left a lasting mark.
In remembering Steve, let us also reflect on what his life taught us: the value of showing up for others, the importance of quiet leadership, and the power of commitment—even when the work is hard or unseen. Let his memory be a prompt for all of us to live with that same sense of responsibility, togetherness and kindness.
May Steve rest in peace. May his life be celebrated, his service honoured, and his memory a blessing to all who knew him.
