I've met many of my current friends and acquaintances via soc.motss - starting as electronic friends we met face-to-face at motss cons and at parties - frequently at Steve and Tony's house in Cambridge when they lived there. Many people have recently recounted their own tales of how Steve affected them because of these electronic media and his generosity. He will really be missed.
Visiting hours at the funeral home are on SUnday from 2-6. The funeral is on Monday at 10am. See below for details. There will be a gathering for his friends at Jasper's Summer Shack in Cambridge at 6:30 on Sunday.
