Steve was a major influence in the formation of the Tri-County Independent Insurance Agents Association. He was president of our organization, a highly respected insurance professional and very active in his community, mostly as a volunteer in charity and youth activities. Steve died from cancer in February 2005 and we thought there was no finer way to honor him than to establish, in his memory, an ongoing scholarship in the areas he cherished and worked so hard in.
