Jay & Mary and family. I am greatly saddened by the news of Stephen's passing. I have very fond memories of when you lived just down the gravel road, and Stephen would come up to my house to play. It meant a lot to me that he would take the time to interact with someone that was 6 years younger than him. I really missed him when you later moved into town.
I just wanted to let you know this, and tell you that Stephen will always be remembered by me for being my first real friend.
