Steve, first cousin to my mother, Ann, and her siblings John, James, Ellen and Mary Solon through their mother, Abigail Gunning Solon, was greatly loved and admired by me and my sisters, Mary Ellen Fleischli, Virginia Wendland and Frances Frost and our families. Our many get-togethers with Steve are cherished memories, full of wit and humor. Steve led such a purposeful and zestful life. We'll deeply miss him and will keep Nancy, Bert and Anne Elizabeth von Grondel and Ann Schanuel in our prayers during this sad and difficult time. Love, Ann Louise Zahner La Jolla, CA US
