In all the 18 years that I have known Stephen I cannot remember once seeing him anything other than jolly. Always with a smile on his face, always ready with a quip, he was someone who could always look on the bright side- an eternal optimist. He was a man with such a zest for life, with so much energy and enthusiasm still burning within him that, instead of sitting back at home with his feet up enjoying a well-earned retirement, he continued to share himself with all of us at KC. How unfair, then, that he should be taken from us so suddenly. I cannot begin to imagine the pain that Ardell and Chris are going through, but my heartfelt thoughts go out to you both. RIP, Stephen, I’ll miss you and your little shuffle. Love, Geoff.
