So sorry to hear the news today of your sudden loss of Steve. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this very sad time. Lots of love the Matheson Family

So very sorry to hear this tragic loss of Steven.
I felt l knew him through Aunty Noni; but also met him several times at extended family occasions. Aunty used to talk so fondly and proudly about Steven. Sharing the milestones of life, especially with Jane and family.
I'm thinking of you all "the Nearys". With love and prayers.
Sorry l cannot make it to the funeral, living in Belgium.
