Steve moved to glorious Whidbey Island May 1, 2023 and has been “livin’ the dream” ever since. He is “dee-lighted” to support Friends of Friends by being part of the 2026 Mr. S Whidbey lineup, since he is grateful to live here and is a big believer in the three Cs: Community, Caring, and Creativity. When asked if he had a happy childhood, Steve replies “so far, so good.” Steve lives by “If you want a guarantee, buy a toaster” (from Proverbs, he thinks).
