For Steve, a life that began in chaos and tragedy and was redeemed through the grace of Alcoholics Anonymous. From a childhood steeped in alcoholism and instability to wild years in the Navy, overseas near-death experiences, broken marriages, homelessness, and jails, Steve’s life was a portrait of self-destruction. He told with humor how he “got run over by a drunk driver — himself,” and how years of denial and pride kept him trapped in despair. His turning point came in a desert rehab after decades of drinking and homelessness, where he asked God for help and slowly began to rebuild through the Steps, sponsorship, and service. Through hard amends, humble faith, and willingness, Steve went from sleeping in cemeteries and soup kitchens to building a beautiful sober life — a loving marriage, honest friendships, steady work, and peace. His message shone with gratitude and laughter, proving that no matter how far one falls, God and AA can turn even the most broken story into a miracle of hope, dignity, and love.
