Steve was one of my best friends—a person whose laughter could fill a room and whose kindness touched everyone he met. He served our country with dedication and was just about to retire from the military, looking forward to more time with his family. Steve is survived by his loving wife Jessica, their bright and joyful daughter Isla, and his wonderful parents, Ed and Sally. His sudden passing has left us all in shock and heartbreak.

Steve was the sole provider for his family, and Jessica has been a devoted stay-at-home mom to Isla, who just turned 7. With Steve’s passing, his family is now facing not only the unimaginable grief of losing him, but also the immediate loss of financial stability. There are many expenses ahead, and the loss of Steve’s military income means Jessica and Isla need help to bridge the gap as they navigate this difficult time. Any additional funds will be input into a college fund for his daughter Isla.

Everyone who knew Steve knows he was one of the funniest, kindest, and most giving individuals. He loved his family deeply—Jessica was his rock, and Isla was truly the light of his life. This family has always been there for others, offering love and support without hesitation. Now, they need our help. Any donation or sharing of this fundraiser will make a real difference for Jessica and Isla as they face the days ahead. Thank you for your kindness and support.
