This came in from Reverend John Robison of Ojai United Methodist Church:
Subject: Fr. Steve
Father Steve has run the race of faith and now stands with that great cloud of witnesses. For us the world is a little sadder. Even though we rejoice in his victory we still grieve in our loss.
If there is anything I, or my congregation, can do for you at this tragic time, please do not hesitate to call.
Shalom,
Pastor John
