We were so surprised to hear that Steve had left us. I went to Highschool with Steve, played football with him. I always enjoyed hearing about him and where he was over the years. Please know our thoughts and prayers are with his family.

We, me and all of his weekly golf buddies, will miss Steve and the morning negotiating on teams and most importantly the point he would have play to for the first nine holes of competition. We knew he was ready to win when he wore his ‘Tiger’ Red Polo shirt and shared he watched some new training videos. He smiled so brightly when he collected the cash… but paid with a roll of Quarters when he lost. I’m still holding a roll in my bag to return when he won again. I guess I’ll just have to hold onto them and return to him when we play again in heaven. RIP ️

So sorry for your loss. I have such great Friday night football memories of the star athlete. He could always bring a smile to my face and was particularly gracious when I was diagnosed with cancer during our senior year. I’ll never forget his words of encouragement over the years.

Ten years since Austin left us. I met Mr. Erlanger and family while a teacher at Oslo Middle. Austin was such a delight in class. Unforgettable. A few years later, I also saw Mr. Erlanger inspire weeping young folks at Austin’s funeral. I recall watching him comforting Austin’s friends when I knew a great part of his own world was shattered. I’m so sorry his family has lost this caring man. I have no doubt, though that Austin (I picture his curls and smile) met his father in heaven with a hug and a hat.
