Steven was preceded in death by his grandfather Bletcher Porter Jr. Steven had the best group of friends any guy could ever have. They enjoyed fun times together with annual camping trips to Carlton, weekend road trips to Cougar football games, country music concerts, as well as daily email chains about the weeks’ events and crazy “finds” on Craigslist. Steven and the guys of the group enjoyed softball in the spring, fishing in the summer, and hunting in the fall. He will be greatly missed. Whitney and the family would like to thank their great friends and the community for all their support during this difficult time.
