Sister Catrina,

Words cannot express the deep sorrow that is being felt by the passing of your husband, your friend, your confidant, and a loving father. What a might love. He has touched the lifes of so many. Pastor Steen's spirit of joy, and love will always be remembered. My thoughts go back to when we gathered with the young women of Mt. Moriah babies on hips being busy for the Lord. What a joyous time. Allye remembers sharing a movie night on Friday. Though our paths separated, we will always be connected spiritually as part of a large family. God's plans are higher than we can ever image. Continue to be a testimony and praise Him as He guides you through this season. Prays of continuos comfort for you and the family.

Love, your Sister in Christ.

To The Family Of Rev. Steen, I known Rev. Steen to be a good person we had a good working relationship when I made my Runs to Hollywood he would tell me how God changed his life from the things of the world. Rev. Steen asked St. Paul Male Choir to cut a CD with him but, we never got the opportunity to do so. He also let me know how much he enjoyed it when I sing "Run Mary Run".

I had the great pleasure of working with William or "Rev" as we called him. Rev always had a smile on his face. He would come in the scale house and bring us candy and leave us little sticky notes with uplifting messages on them telling us to have a good day. He will be greatly missed in this place!

I'm simply asking the Lord above to comfort and heal your hearts in this time of bereavement. Always remember that the the earth below has no sorrows that the heavens above can't heal.

To the family of my brother, Pastor William Steen, and most especially to his sweet and blessed wife, my heartfelt sympathy. I feel that I have lost a true spiritual friend. In spite of the fact that our lives have taken us apart, you and your children have always held a special place in my family's heart. "KJ and Olivia were always meant to grow up and marry", and I was always meant to help Pastor market his first big release. You have been greatly blessed in your marriage; God's love abounds through you and the spirit that was your husband. May you find strength and guidance from the knowledge that our brother is home with the Lord, and that death can never sever the love that you shared. Know that God's love will always sustain you, and that the Holy Spirit has His loving arms around you and your family as you make this transition. As Pastor Steen always said, " God bless your hearts". LaVerda & sons, KJ and Nick (Mt. Moriah Baptist Church)
