Oh, crap. This is the first I'd heard of Steve's passing.
Steve, you will be missed. As a fellow Hound your contributions remain unchallenged. As a fellow human being your courage and resilience in the face of adversity remain a testament to your humanity. Your battle here is over and I know you're looking down on us here at AW and continuing to inspire us. You now walk hand in hand with other dear friends from AW and I sure hope God is enjoying the lot of you up there. I know you are enjoying editing God's grammar. Steve, drink deep of Heaven's (non-alcoholic) ambrosia and enjoy the rest and peace you most certainly earned. You will not be forgotten, but you will be missed. Remember, once a Hound, always a Hound and I'll raise a glass in your honor today.
