A heckuva good person lost his life in a Denver traffic accident on Wednesday. Steve always had a smile on his face and would help anyone he could.
He was an electronics repair technician for a worldwide company, and he had flown to Denver to cover for others so they could enjoy Christmas. Steve didn't have any immediate family in Dallas, so that's just the sort of thing he would do.
This has put a damper on my Christmas Eve, but then again I can remember all of the help I got from Steve when I had equipment problems. Sometimes he would interrupt his day and sneak over to a customer's site to help me fix something.
I'll miss him, but I feel better for having known him.
Semper Fi, Steve.
