Steve Loved to
Make People Happy
Here he is honoring his grandmother at her 80th birthday |
 |
Steve Loved to
entertain people. He loved to mentor people and encourage them to live their
dreams. He was a middle school teacher by profession but he loved to act and
to write. |
|
Steve lived in
Las Vegas with his cat Rufina nicknamed Roofy
(Sometimes spelled Rufy or Ruffy.) |
 |
He had a gentle
touch with animals.
Roofy was a social outcast among her cat brothers and sisters. Steve took
her in and they were great friends. |
|
Steve was Smart and Well Educated |
 |
Steve received his B.A. degree from the University of Southern California
with double majors in history and political science. He received his
teaching credential from San Jose State University. |
Steve Discovered he had a Brain
Tumor in 1991
Here he has just returned home from brain surgery, he felt he
looked like robo-cop escapee from Devils Island. |
 |
His Infirmities Changed his life,
his outlook and his ideals.
He had the tumor
removed. He fought back and finished his education and became a Middle
School Teacher. |
