So sorry to learn of Steve's passing. He milled all the framing lumber for our cabin back in the late 90's. It was intriguing to see him set up his mill there on site and go to work.
We remodeled the interior of the cabin in 2021 and one day we unexpectedly needed a few boards but we didn't have a truck with us that day. Called Steve and he said he had the boards and then came the hard question; "do you deliver"? And as always he came through and delivered. He was enjoyable to talk to and learn about the Crabtree area.
Our prayers and condolences for his family and friends.
So sorry for your loss. May God's comforting arms of love hold you and your family close.
