Steve Campano, aka "Coach Steve", passed away on Saturday, October 1, 2022 after an eight week battle with pancreatic cancer.
Steve is preceded in death by his parents, Marie and Louis and his sister, Judy.

Jeff and Cory were his buddies. You could always find them on the golf course, watching football, playing poker or sitting on the deck smoking a cigar.
Steve was a simple guy, to honor him feel free to wear your favorite golf or sports shirt and a baseball hat.
