I am so sorry for your family’s loss. I have heard a lot about Steve from my dear friend, Marlyn. God grant you peace and comfort.
We were so blessed to get to know Steve, and have him in our CR Band. We will miss him, but know he is with Jesus in a far better place than we can even imagine.
Dear Dick, Lorraine & David,
I am so very saddened to learn of the loss of Steve. Though he was younger than I, he was one of my favorite cousins to play with. May God Bless you all during this very difficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with you for strength and comfort.
Love,
Barbara (Clabaugh) Pugh

My memory of him is of a young man, polite and gentle; and, obviously, from the above picture, which is a beautiful remembrance, he was full of energy, light and joy.

My prayers for you & your family. I know you will find strength in The Lord. May his peace be in your hearts as you mourn Steve’s loss.
Reading the funeral notices in the Lincoln Journal came across Steve Wroughton’s funeral notice and although I didn’t know him I know his brother Dave at Superior and wish to express my hearthfelt sympathy, love and prayers to him and the family…pretty much a shock since Dave was pretty sick just recently himself… may Steve rest in peace…Shirley Dove Webber, Kansas
We are so sorry to hear of Steve’s passing. and glad we did get to meet him when you came to Colorado. It seems that words are often inadequate to express how one feels. May it help you to know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.
Love, Craig, Ronda and Aunt Lucy.
