Sadly Steve's cancer has returned and is putting the Chef through some rough times. He's tough, strong, positive and fighting back hard but his situation is serious. He isn't well enough to post just now, so he asked me to stand in for him. He's off to the hospital this weekend for a course of chemo-therapy.

Please send a few extra positive vibes his way. He told me how much he appreciates your generous well wishes and support.

I'll drop in on Chef at the hospital. When I do, I'll take him a printout of your posts. Anyone who'd like more information on Steve's conditions should feel free to contact me directly. 

Paul

Chef you are an inspiration to us all. I think of your positive attitude everyday.

Pirate Steve, you've put up an incredible title bout performance against your foe and it shows. That Bonefish pic was sweet and there are lots more out there for you. You are in the championship rounds now and we all know you have the right stuff to win it. Keep at it. We're all cheering for you and we know you can do it. We'll be thinking of you at the Forebay this weekend.

Thanks for putting this up PAL.  I visited Steve the other day, and his positive attitude in the face of adversity is astounding.  It was also great to meet his mom, we can all rest assured he has a great team in SD.

Anyways big-daddy, hang in there, there is nothing you can't accomplish.  Look forward to reflecting on this moment of your life as we float on the sea of Cortez...twenty years from now!  I'm wearing my jade for mojo..now go kick its ass!!!
