Hi Steve
I have been in contact with Barb and Marty all these months and am cheering your continual road to recovery! There are so many wonderful memories of our great times in Minneapolis . Seeing you in Wichita with the “Minnesota Guys” was the icing on the cake. Please know our thoughts and prayers are with you as you continue to enjoy all that life has to offer. Stay well and take care of yourself. Love to your family and for sure Pam!!
Fondly, Sue Verson Levich
Steve,
I read your letter and it brought tears. I’m not surprised of all the love and prayers you re received from so many. You and your family have been in my life for so many years and have seen all the love and caring you’ve given to so many.
Can’t wait to see you and Pam and family when I return to Minnesota.
As Ever, Love Joanne ❤️
Yes, it is me (from 50+ years ago, college days) .. I came across your page on this website while looking for an update on one of my fishing buddies here in WA who has been wrestling with pancreatic cancer for the past year or so. Like you, his outlook is improving - and with the grace of God, we'll all see another decade or two in this lifetime..
It is wonderful to read through your heartfelt letter of thanks to your family and friends who have accompanied you on your recovery from the cardiac arrest last Fall. So glad that you have the love and support of many - please add me to the faithful who are journeying with you as you get back to full strength. Gosh, life sure has its mysteries and twists and turns along the way, doesn't it???
I hope we can catch up and talk sometime when you're up to it. My wife Cindi & I live in Edmonds, WA these days - right near the Ferry dock. We have 2 daughters and 4 grandsons. The boys are a handful - but you know about that much more than me.. We'll talk soon..
Peace be with you, Steve. And with your family, too.
Steve,
I have followed your story from the beginning. It did not look good for you but I knew you would make it because you are stubborn and God told me he didn't want another carpet guy right now in my prayers. Reading your letter was so inspiring to me, to everyone and now I know you have truly been blessed with a second chance in life. Please, please take care Steve, your sons are handling Cheney Carpets, Pam is keeping you in line (right Pam?), Alayna is doing an awesome job and you need to take care of you.
Keep those wheels going around Ridgedale!!

Steve, your journey has been an incredible one. You've been tucked in my heart and I've been sending love to you and your family (and that won't stop)! This is a true story of love, unconditional love - and you've been given the gift to feel the enormity of it all. You are an amazing man and have a very special family!
Love, Janice (Armbruster) Brinson
