I grew up with Steve through high school unti he went to Vietnam. I lost touch with him because someone said he died in Vietnam. Steve and I were like brothers. We even went to juvie together. I love seeing his pic. I’m so sad that I thought he died in Vietnam and missed the opportunity to re connect We were a kindred spirit. Peace and love
