Laughs with Steve

By: Shalee Blain

I, like many others who have shared memories, had the privilege of working with Steve at U of U Health for several years. Our professional relationship really blossomed in his last year with the U as we had an opportunity to work together on a very regular basis. I'll never forget being in virtual meetings with Steve and without fail on every meeting he'd send me some snarky, funny message. Once he'd see me read it and laugh, he'd message me "Got ya to laugh!". It was always his goal to get laughs and smiles from everyone he came in contact with. Steve always reminded me to have fun at work and I was always so thankful for his reminders to not take things so serious. I am forever grateful for the short amount of time that I got to know him
