We wish to express our deep gratitude to all of Steve's friends and acquaintances who have offered us their support.

As a family we've have been reading the numerous stories you have shared.

The stories have made us both laugh and cry. They have all shown how many lives he touched.

We have been overwhelmed by the contributions you have made which have been a huge help to get him home.

It has been a huge relief to finally have him with us after navigating what, at times, has seemed like a lengthy legal process.
