I’m so sorry to hear of Steve’s passing. It’s funny when I picture him it’s always with a smile and his keys clanging as he walked fast or him leaning on one elbow. I would catch him watching me bowl with his arms crossed and his finger on his lip. He always seemed to know exactly what I was doing wrong and gave a do this that’s all no big deal kind of advice. I’m not sure which was bigger his personality, hugs or laughter. All which will be missed greatly.
With love and prayers
Kathy Dobrowolski and family
So sorry for his loss….will always remember him going to get my Michael Joe after a St Paddy’s parade in Southie at the local police station and with his red hair and Michael being so dark the officers didn’t believe they were related….thought he was pulling a fast one….ask Aunt Donna about it….seeing she was the one that was watching him….or so we thought….
pam and rich and all the sisters and brothers and grandchildren we extend our sympathy condolences to you we will miss Stephen your loving aunts pat and rainey.
To the Gagne and Carey Family,
I worked with Steve many years ago at Boston Bowl and will still happy to be able to spend time with him at the Hanover location as he watched my daughters grow while they bowled on the Junior leagues. He was like a Papa to all kids he knew. A man with a heart of gold. He will truly be missed.
Sincerely,
Diana Wilt
My deepest condolences to Steve’s family and friends. His big personality will be missed by all. I am a league bowler in Hanover and would talk to Steve a lot about his grandchildren, he loved spoiling them ! I know we will all miss him and his quick wit.

TO THE Gagney and Carey family. My deepest condolences to your family. He was a good person and a wonderful man to work for. I will always remember my talks with him and what he taught me. You will be missed but never forgotten. Tanya and Family.
Steve has been a friend for over 25 years. He never changed. He always did what he said and said what he did. Like bowling he wasn’t the most graceful but always got the job done WELL. His pride was in his family honesty and job. Gone way too soon! Rest in peace. Barry Warshafsky
Gagne and Carey family, Steve was a special guy, I knew him from Boston bowl in Hanover where I still bowl in leagues.
He had the best personality and always a smile for everyone.
We often talked about numerous events but the grandchildren were the number one priority he loved them and his family so much. I will miss our talks and his warming welcomes when I return to bowl. Steve will be greatly missed and definitely not forgotten. God Bless All, Bill & Elaine Spooner
I worked with Steve the past four years, and got to know him fairly well through many conversations, he loved his family especially the grandkids, thoughts, well wishes and prayers, until we meet again Steve….. You will certainly not be forgotten… Paul, Lee Ann and Patrick Jenner

I watched you everyday and was amazed at how strong a person you were. You were taken from me too soon and I will miss you very much. My heart aches but I take comfort in knowing in some way you are still here will me. I love you!!!
We just heard of Steve’s passing today. He was a heck of a guy. We will miss his laugh and teasing jokes at the bowling alley. He always had a big greeting when we walked in on Wednesday nights. Best wishes to you all. – Kris & Cheryl, Wednesday Night women’s league.
