My heart is heavy from the loss of your love one and my "long-term friend, Stevie." I was devastated to hear about his passing. I will never forget him. His friendship is embedded in my memory. We were introduced in 1977, after first attending PQC. Stevie D. was an amazing person, baseball player, athletically inclined: in running, basketball, dancing, and had a jovial personality. He always had you laughing...I speak of him often to relatives and others, when speaking of college years.. He wasn't only a friend, but a brother.. Gone, but not forgotten.. He is no longer in pain. PQC TIGER FOREVER, "FAMILY" R.I.P. Cassandra Spade "Short" Love forever, Miss PQC 1980-81
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
