    I had Steven as a student, a beloved student. I feel like this cannot be real.He always had a laugh and that ornery grin. Later in life, I knew home as a wonderful father, husband, and friend. Fly high sweet boy! I miss you already. Ms. Boker

    Stevie, Jennifer, Kasey and the kids .. As his Aunt by marriage for many years and knowing Steven all of his life I am truly saddened by the news. My husband Matthew thought nothing but good things and thoughts of Steven as he grew to know him over the few years knowing me. As Steven once said to me after I wasnt in the family anymore that I’d always be his Aunt Heidi and he loved me and missed me in his life saying he was so happy we were all back in Quincy and now he could hang with Cole and Isiah. They grew very close in those few years and the boys are deeply saddened their cousin or in their eyes brother is gone. Please any of you dont hesitate in any way to contact us should we be of any help in this very hard time and know our prayers are with all of you and we will smile as we think of our memories of Steven wishing he didnt have to leave this world so soon. I just have to believe another angel was needed to watch over us. And I know he’s looking over all of you.

    Kacey, I’m so sorry for your loss. When I talked to him when he was singing karaoke That night, the love he showed towards you and him talking about the kids was priceless. That is what I will always remember about him. Patty

    I wanted to express my condolences to the Dillinger family. I was so sorry to read this. I knew immediately that this had to be the son of one of my former fourth graders. Once again, so sorry!

    I am an ex of Steven’s, and we have a son Kaiden who’s now 4 years old. Steven was a good guy. I hope to tell our son how happy his dad made me feel. Even tho we split I will always love him.
