Didnt get a chance to post to this when it happened...
Steve was a great guy, friendly, dependable, all around great person. I attended the service in the Springs, lots of guys turned out, Rick T was in town and spoke. I think there was a good after service gathering that went well also. Good pic of Steve and bracelet offer from this link: http://www.officerpratt.com/TyeBandC...net_steve.html |
I was in B-2-10 with Steve. Great guy and will be missed by all.
|
RIP

RIP Brother

After 5-7 hrs there, we adjourned to Steve's house where we finished off another 7+ gallons of Jose Cuervo (the only brand of Tequila according to Steve), and caught Rick before he fell into the fire barrel. I had to shave my tongue for a week after this. God, I hate Tequila. B 2/10 served as the pallbearers led by SGM Ricky P. There was a ton of brothers that he had served with who showed up from out of town. The Patriot Guard Riders turned out to support Steve. Mind you this was Jan and about -10 outside with the windchill and a smattering of snow on the ground, while they are standing outside the church holding US Flags for the entire service. They truly are a special bunch of people. In Feb/Mar of 07 we had the Steve Gernet Memorial Ride in the Springs and once again we did Tequila shots with beer chasers. Colleen drove Steve's truck behind about 20 QP's on their scoots as we went Bar to Bar. It started off in the low 40's but warmed up as we went along. not that the tequila helped any. :eek: I miss ya Bro... De Oppresso Liber Rangers Lead the Way |

Steve aka "G-Man" was a great team mate and friend. He will be missed. Can't believe it's almost been two years.
