May he rest in peace.

Steve was part of a generation of Greek migrants who came here with little English and nothing much else but with a strong work ethic , he was able to achieve much through his efforts and those of his loving and supportive wife, Anna. He was respectful to his mother-in-law, Electra, his extended family and friends. With our deepest sympathies, Annette Bugden and Family.
