I recall the day that Steve called me as he was getting on a plane in Philadelphia (I never met him before), and the next thing I knew he was on my door step! He was such a genuine humble guy - a real car guy. He even talked me out of one of my cars. I'm sure that we'll see him again in heaven!

I too had never had the opportunity to meet Steve in person, but had many conversations with him over the phone regarding cars. He was always a delight to talk with, a truly nice guy. Very sad news. My heartfelt condolences to all his friends and family.

We will never forget how quick he was willing to help our son and his Company in Iraq. Steve was ther main contributor that supplied the funds to have the whole Company be able to buy a satellite and have communications with their families during Christmas a few years back. We talked to him one day and the check was in the mail the next. A fine gentleman indeed. We still appreciate what many others from this Site did for those soldiers in Iraq a few years ago. God bless the Sandlin Family.

Aside from the world class cars, I always remembered Steve as one of the original members of this site. This thread shows the sort of man he was. RIP Steve.

I have never met Steve, but know exactly what you mean by this Ken. I have no doubt that those who were close to him will forever feel his &quot;presence&quot;.



My thoughts and prayers go out to all of his friends and family.
