We all think it can never happen to us. A friend went to the BMWRA rally with a bunch of guys from our club. While riding with several of them yesterday afternoon, a deer jumped out of the woods, knocked him into the oncoming lane of traffic where he was struck by a car and killed. I'm devastated. This was a wonderful guy, friendly, enthusiastic with a contagious smile. Steve, we will all miss you.

I am sorry for the loss of your friend and for the grief and questions that descend upon those that knew him best.

May his passing on early fall day remind us of the short season of life and to value relationships that last forever. To love and beloved, to forgive and be forgiven.

I have no words that will help, so I'll just say that I'm so very sad for you, his family, and everyone who ever knew in loved him. May he rest in peace.

It's truly devastating to hear about Steve's tragic accident at the BMWRA rally. It's a stark reminder of how unexpected and fragile life can be.
Rest in peace, Steve.
