steve would have been 66 today. instead he gets to be seniors card age forever, while he rests peacefully on. what we wouldn't give for one more birthday with you, but we all know you're in the best place possible waiting patiently until we are all reunited.
we had birthday dinner in his honour, complete with chocolate cake (which my mother in law, who doesn't often offer praise, absolutely loved) and even sang happy birthday to him as madeline insisted on holding his photo in his honour. it is hard to believe it has been 4 months without him already, but i really feel like he has remained here and watched over us. all of the extra money that's appeared with his finalised insurances and accounts, and times when we think of him at random moments... he's definitely around us.
well old man. we love you and we are always thinking of you...
-when alex fitted his new all blacks onesie that was already too small for joseph when you bought it
-when joseph threw a fit last week when something wasn't just right
-when oli called to ask how to put oil in her car
and when i saw a great covid-19 meme about ducks.
stay safe up there, cause your memories are safe with us.
