I broke one of his cameras.
I dented the hood on his car, badly.
He never cared and laughed it off.
He gave me his hotel room in Phoenix once too.
Thanks for being a good friend, thanks for introducing the internet to professional motocross.
Motonews was incredible, his photos were exceptional.
RIP bud. I'm saddend

RIP Steve.

You really don't know how many lives you touched with your kind heart. You were moto to the core and the MX community has just lost a great ambassador.

Very sad to hear this.. I watched for years as he battled moto lovers everywhere before joining the madness myself. He is the main reason I kept coming back.

RIP TFS.. The sport of motocross lost an innovative man today. Prayers for the family.

Just heart broken.

From day one, from the day we met, he treated me and my little new business like we were as important as every big name company you can think of.

Many people in this industry should take a lesson from that.

Godspeed, Steve

If anyone knows or hears of services, please let me know

No. Way

TFS was cool. He was only too willing to offer advice on a non-moto project I was part of.

RIP Steve.

Not fair.

Entrepreneur, innovator, star gazer, dreamer. Lover of people. Lover of motocross. Not fair.

You believed in us, You believed in motocross.

You cannot leave like this.

Very sad news.

Although I never had the pleasure of meeting him in person, and he didn't post here much in recent years, many of his thoughts over in Non-Moto always stuck with me (in a good way).

And I literally laughed out loud on more than one occasion while reading his Seat Bounce posts and exchanges with RC16. Good times.

RIP, TFS

RIP Steve.

I went places through your photographs that I wouldn't have been able to go otherwise - thank you for that.

Dammit I hate to hear that.

Like so many here, I at first always thought Steve to be a ass, until we met at Redbud a few years back.

It was just a chance meeting along the fence, but he really was a lot different from his "forum" persona. After he lost weight, we emailed back and forth about weight issues, etc... and he always treated me respectfully and offered me help along the way about diet and health issues.

Even though we hadn't corresponded in over a year, I always enjoyed talking with him. Godspeed friend, and may you rest in peace.
