After graduation, Steve entered into the service industry. He worked in several restaurants Including Steak and Stein, Company B’s, The Pearl River Saloon and Brady’s at the Station. His generosity and quick sense of humor made him popular with the customers and his fellow servers. He was everyone's best friend. He was an extraordinary bartender, the best in the business and many shot glasses of Tully will be raised in his honor.

He was a lifelong diehard Mets and Jets fan. He attended all the games he could and rooted beyond hope that this would be their year. Half of his wardrobe was in support of his teams. He took his love of sports to the little league and football fields to coach his sons. He was a gentle and kind influence on many young men.

A favorite destination was Atlantic City. where he was able to enjoy the beach and the casinos with his friends. As much as Steve enjoyed the beach you would often find him under an umbrella with a t-shirt over his head. He loved the excitement of almost winning. He had a love for fine dining and enjoyed it best when shared with his friends and family.

He will be severely missed and fondly remembered by all that knew him.
