Let's get Steve Carlstead a memorial he deserves

As family and peers, we have come to a very challenging and trying time. The loss of Stephen Carlstead. This tragic event has impacted not only his immediate and personal extended family, it has also impacted his extended family that he has built over the past 11 years with AT&T as one of the senior technicians in Central Illinois. For those of whom that had the pleasure of knowing Steve, as private of a man as he was, without a doubt knows 2 things about him. He loved his family and he loved his Nascar. His sense of humor was an unique one, especially whenever he sensed you giving him a "Nattitude", as he so eloquently put it. There aren't enough characters here to express how monumental this loss is to all of whom his presence extends to. No words can begin to describe the pain his loving wife and family are experiencing. Again, in these already trying times, we have come to a great challenge. We humbly come to you all, with the hope that we can come together as friends, family or extended to give Stephen Carlstead the send off he deserves. Our goal is set where it is, however every little bit counts as some help is greater than no help. Again, we are asking humbly and we appreciate your generosity during this season. Even more so during these times. Thank you for your consideration, condolences and contributions.
