I enjoyed working with Steve at CSU. He was open to upgrading the controls at the power plants & gave me opportunities early in my career that others did not. He was an honorable & moral man. I´m a better person for having Steve in my life.

Steve was a great man. I worked with him at Colorado Springs Utilities where he gave me many opportunities! I've thought of him often and will alway remember him as an honorable & personable man..
