Steven Michael Helmick

Steven is one of my nine grand children. He is number two of the nine. Steven was born during my lunch break in Long Beach, California in 1970. Moments after his birth I saw him in a cart being rolled down a hall. I can still remember how pretty his buns were. Just a perfect sweet little boy. He was always a sweet guy and a joy to be around.

Steven would have been 41 this month. He passed away in 2003. His passing was my first experience with losing a close loved one. It was very hard and painful. He is missed by all who knew him.

This is a picture of Steven taken a year before he passed away.


Here are three pictures of Steven from his childhood.
