my thoughts are with you all, steves family , the band and their families, im so sorry, god bless. x

Hail from Colombia mate! Always seemed to me that you were the nicest guy ever besides a great singer and performer. Enjoy that place in heaven and we will meet soon, hang on in there!!

Mein herzliches Beileid an seine Partnerin Brigitte, Familie, Band, Freunde, Weggefährten und Fans - was für ein Verlust! Ein grossartiger und charismatischer Sänger ist nicht mehr - jedoch für immer in unseren Herzen.

ho avuto l'onore di incontrarti sul mio cammino quest'estate a Lugano dopo averti tanto ascoltato con la band. Tutti noi percorriamo la nostra vita lasciando tracce del nostro passaggio cercando con il nostro agire di essere sempre sulla strada che dentro di noi sembra la più giusta e che rispecchia la nostra verità nel vedere e vivere le cose,.Hai sempre seguito la strada del tuo cuore e ora vivi nei nostri......un abbraccio di luce e d'amore per questo tuo nuovo cammino an angel is crying now for you

Dear Steve, once a woman thought I was you.
Man, was I proud that moment!
I don't know where she had her eyes & ears.
I always thought of you as a superb looking & sounding guy.
I always had the impression you're very kind, charming & a great, serious but not high-nosed musician.
Good singers are so rare. Good people too, especially in that crazy business.
I can astimate the big loss for your woman, your band, your family & friends.
I met Leo once when you just started the band. He was full of enthusiasm.
And GOTTHARDs success proved him right. (Great name by the way.)
Thanks to Brigitte, Mark, the whole band and the familiy for being so strong an upright in these heavy days. You found the right words & I guess that was harder than the hardest riffs & beats you ever played.
I guess although Steve has now broad & strong wings he will always be near, as sincere as he were in life.
I cant be with you on sunday but I guess many will.

Love, Markus
