I met Steve at one of the meets long time ago and ate at his restaurant. He was very nice and accommodating. I remember our e92s were in the same vessel. My prayers to you and your family.

The first time I met steve was at Stars, I then quickly became an addict to the Stars wings and ranch sauce, he's always so friendly; his laughter and kindness will forever be missed, RIP Steve

Steve was a great friend and always friendly to newbies that stop by Stars. I feel so lucky I was able to catch up with him last month before this tragedy. You will be missed. RIP

I don't know what to say. I am truly sad that I lost touch with him as I spent less time on this forum and with the BMW community. I really can't believe we lost him in this life. He was such a wonderfully friendly guy and made anyone feel included. My condolences to his family. RIP to a genuinely good guy.

I still remember the Pasadena meet where we were all trying to leave the parking structure, I and a few others didn't have cash to pay the lot to leave. Though I barley knew Steve at the time, he offered to pay for me and was it Johnson and Nico? just so we could get out.


Thank you to everyone who donated so far, it truly means a lot and just shows how close we got as a community. Even if you cannot make a donation or you didn't know Steve that well, but still want send some words for Steve and his family, shoot me an email at remembering.snohman@gmail.com and I'll make sure to get it on the card. I'll also make sure the card gets to the 4/25 Wings meet so you can sign or donate in person. Thank you all again.

I'm deeply saddened by this... Steve was one of the nicest guys I've met through this community.
The more I think about the memories the harder it is to comprehend.
My deepest condolences to his family. He was truly an amazing person and will be greatly missed.


Rest in peace friend

Steve, you were someone who stood out back in the days, with your generosity and your friendship. Those Stars meets helped bring this group of fanatics together, like a fraternity. I'm still in denial but I know you're in a peaceful and better place.

This morning, I happened to look on my wall and see my old E92 at Fontana, a pic that Long took, and saw you in my passenger seat and got a little emotional. Rest in peace my friend. God bless your family during this difficult transition.

Hi Dr. Mag,

Remember when we ate at his restaurant and were comparing wheels?

His passing was so unexpected and a shock to all of us. Steve was terrific, down-to-earth family guy who knew a lot about computers.

Condolences to his family whom I never had the chance to know. I too now wish I did not fall out of touch.

At last night's viewing, it was touching to see all the love for Steve. His brother's eulogy truly portrayed what a great person he was to his family and friends. Steve, you will be missed! Until we meet again!

I will always remember cruising Top DOWN with Steve as we would go to wing stop after our routine procede installation and removal cause my car went into LIMP MODE. I will truly miss him. My heart and condolences goes out to his family and loved ones.

Thanks to everyone for their kind words and generous donations. I'm sure Steve and his family will be extremely grateful.

I'll be at the Wings meet on wednesday so if anyone would like to write some words/sign the card or make a donation for steve personally, i'll have it at the meet.

I'm going to close the donation this friday (4/27) and I'll be bringing the card and a check with the donations to Steves wife over the weekend.
