Donna Ruggiero (Monacci) (1979)
My brother Steve, or Stef as he was better know, was liked by everyone. He was known for his sense of humor, willingness to help anyone who needed help, and for his dedication to his family. He also made a damn nice wine. His death was sudden, but he didn't suffer. He was on the golf course, his favorite place in the world, when it happened. So he had to be happy. Stef's birthday was October 21, 1954. Love you Stef!

I went to school with Steve for many years and remember him well as a generous, fun, smart and very active person. It sounds funny now, but I'll never forget his letting me ride his minibike, something I might have had trouble doing if I had one as nice as his! Just a great, great guy. So glad he was doing what he loved when he died and that he did not suffer. I know he is resting peacefully in God's loving arms.
Richard Booker (1973)
I played little leage baseball with Steve. His dad was our coach. He was a hell of a player and a hell of a guy. I wish I had known he was in Greensboro.
