Stevie always had a great work ethic and always wanted better for himself and family, which he made a point to put himself in a position to do so.  His first job at the age of 16 was at Mr. Mack’s Garage. Throughout his career he worked as a truck driver and in the customer service industry as well. One of his most memorable jobs was when he became an employee for City of Philadelphia working in the Water Department, where he became a pro in navigating through the city.

Stevie had a love for many things, especially Philadelphia Sports. Growing up he was a huge hockey fan. Stevie also loved the finer things in life. He took pride in his appearance always staying on top of the latest styles. Cars was another thing he loved, if you knew Stevie you knew he took pride in having  nice, clean cars.

What he loved most was his family. The love he had for his wife and children was unconditional and everlasting.  He always wanted the best for his children. He kept them in extra curricular activities and educational programs all throughout their childhood. He was family oriented and looked out for his love ones whenever he could. Stevie would keep everyone laughing with his famous sayings like “cat daddy” and “no game”. His most famous one was “yes or no daddio”.  

He was militant yet lovable, stern yet understanding. We’re going to miss his big smile dearly.
