I have had the last day to deal with the passing of my best friend and it isn't getting any easier let me tell ya. He was one hell of a guy. He was always there no matter what. We never had an intimate relationship because from the very beginning we agreed we would just be friends and agreed sex would make that difficult. If you don't have a friend of the opposite sex that you've had that kind of friendship with you may not understand but if you have you will know where I'm coming from. He was there for my girls, being a single mom with 3 girls to raise without a mans influence is difficult but he always made me know he was that influence for them and he was. I have called him in the middle of the night when my teenage daughter climbed out the window for a boy and he was right there. He was always there when they had new boyfriends to let them know hey they don't have a dad but they have Uncle Steve and now that safety net is gone and its a hard pill to swallow I must say. People say writing things down will help me deal with it so thats why i'm sharing this now. Steve was only 48 yrs young and passed from complete liver failure due to Hep C and drinking. He was the BEST man i've EVER known. My youngest who is now 7 cried last night and said she's lost the best man she's ever known and I lost it. See her father is in her life but by the comment I know he is not as good to her as her Uncle Steve was. And this is going to be so hard for her. Then as some of you know my oldest who is 23 is pregnant with her first boy and Steve has been her DAD figure since she was 9. She is so torn now because she was so looking forward to Uncle Steve knowing him and spoiling him like he has so many.
The service is Sunday and will be a sight to see I know because Steve was the president of the Cumberland County Concerned Bikers Association for many years and has been to congress to lobby for bikers rights and children's rights. He was a very well known person in this town. And he will be very sorely missed.
Thanks for reading my thoughts.
God Bless You Steve Steen I will Miss You Forever!!!
