  1. “Dinger! No need to show up on Thursday!” — spoken by the Econ Teacher as we walked out the room door of our last Willy class. Steve was the only student in our all-male seniors Econ course to get above 85%… and thus the freedom to skip the final exam. A collective “damn!” was heard above his well-known chuckle.

    Great guy to discuss passions for Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Panteras etc from our 80s years. Again, always with hope, and a smile!

    Thoughts and prayers to his family, especially his sons.

  2. I will never think of Stephen as anything but DING-ah. 🙂 He was an huge and amazing presence at Willy. I only have fond memories of him. We were very lucky to have him there

  3. I’m deeply saddened to hear this news. While I wasn’t close with Steve I remember him being surrounded by friends on campus and beloved by so many. My condolences to Steve’s family and loved ones.
