The world has lost a great one. Steve Marshall always called me "Little Michael Agee" so I called him "Little Steve, the tiny blacksmith" even though he was head and shoulders taller than me. He taught me a lot and was one of the toughest, funniest, and most generous people I have known. I'll see you in heaven and remember you with every ring of my anvil. by Mike Agee

Eternal rest grant unto Steve, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
