Alicia,
As those above have stated, I can't really add anything to what has already been said. My condolences. Steve played an Alembic, so he had happiness in music. You care enough about him to revisit this forum and share this news with us, so it appears he also had happiness in the people around him. Be proud and grateful he put you into his life, celebrate what you shared and take good care of his memory and your self.
John
