My heart is aching for and with you all. Steve is going to be greatly missed by not only his direct family, but by the community family as well. May the Lord's miraculous healing powers lift your hearts at this time. Big hugs to all of you.

We are so sorry for your loss. Steve will always be warmly remembered by everyone who knew him on all levels.
Steve's journey is now one of his own, and his love for you, his family made you the strong people you are today and will be tomorrow.
If ever you should need anything, please let us know.
Bridgett and family
Many fond memories of Steve camping with the boys, and the help he gave our family whenever we needed him. (Wendy knows some of the stories)
We are here any time you need us night or day!
Love,
The McDaniel Family
Welcome home Steve! Please save a place for us there.
Some people you meet make a great impact and impression on your life. Steve was one of those people. I only have fond remembrances of him. I don't have a single negative memory of him of any kind. I just hope and pray that I can use his example and the way he lived his life and emulate my life after his.
Steve will be greatly missed but I know that this will be a temporary situation and someday I hope to be worthy enough to see him again.
To the Southwick family. Thank you so much for sharing your personal struggle with all of us. I wish that I could take some of your grief away but I can only give you my love and emotional support.
Hey, on a lighter note. Now you can finally clear up some of Steve's "Treasures" (ha ha).
With much love, Till we meet again Steve.

On Behalf of the Technical Support staff for Crestron Electronics NJ, please accept our sympathies for your loss.
Curt and I want to let you know we are thinking of you. This is one of those really hard spots in life but there are those who really care about you and your family. Our prayers are with you

I (Jami) personally did not know Steve that well, But I just want the family to know that you have been in our prayers and thoughts. I can only imagine how hard the days ahead will be but know that you all have a TON of people that LOVE and CARE for you.
WE LOVE YOU,
Jami and Zeb Bingham
As a longtime friend I add my thoughts and prayers for you all as well. I will never forget the way Steve took me under his wing nearly 18 years ago when I was a new police officer and made me feel like part of the family (I may have starved to death without some wonderful meals thanks to you guys!) You are such a strong family and your faith will get you through this trial the Lord has given you as well. If Steve could I am sure his comments would be much like one of my favorite hymns. "God be with you till we meet again." May the Lord pour forth His blessings for all of you family and friends.

Love you all very much,

To Cheri and all of the Southwicks. Sure a hard time and don't know what to say. Except my prayers and thoughts are with you all. Stephen was a great husband, father and friend. He was always so kind, gentle and thoughtful of others, espically of me, the pest, who came often to be with your great family. Please give hugs all around from me. Conny Ellestad
Imagine the bear hug reunion that Steve and Aaron are sharing on this day!!!I hope this happy thought is one that will sustain you during this very sad time here on Earth. Steve was a good man and well loved by his family and by his friends. He will be sorely missed. He leaves an incredible legacy behind. God Bless you all.

We send all our love and support to you guys at this time. we love you.
All our love,
Shaneen, Jayda and Hayden
Cheri,
We are very sorry for your loss. I(Reshell)did not grow up in this community but I do know that Steve was always very polite and soft spoken. I remember when he came into the Co-Op and purchased geese from me. We had great conversations about them. That was quite a bit before I became a Bingham. John and I want you to know that we thought the world of Steve and your family. God Bless all of you in your tough times.
John,Reshell,Cheyenne,Kaylah and Luke Bingham.
