Personal Life

Steve enjoyed helping others. No matter who it was or whether they were friends or strangers; Steve always found joy in giving aid. For instance, he once assisted a woman who had become paraplegic following an accident, helping her regain control of her legs.

He contributed opinions pieces for various outlets, such as the Washington Post and Australian Financial Review. Known for his outspoken opinions and often going against the grain, he relished challenging authority.

At home, he was an adoring family man who dedicated much of his time and affection towards them.

His funeral will take place this Friday.
