Hi Jimmy,
I was thinking about you and laughed out loud the other day, didn't we have a ball at our 40th. It was also the last time I was going to see you or Wilbern for a while..... Arline and I, you and Mike and Wilbern, Gallio and Hance and other good, good friends stayed outside drinking and laughing the whole time. We didn't even know when everyone had dinner, and didn't care. We'd been friends for most of our lives and somehow realized how precious it was that night. See you in a couple a years Jimmy....Dave

I remember Jim Steele very well. Many years and different directions later I look at his SHHS pictures and think of Jim as a nice and pleasant person. He was 'cool' and did not have any enemies. It is all very impermanent. Travel safely Jim Steele. Steven Lowe

I have to say I didn't really know Jim Steele -- certainly not as "Tuffy." He was, after all, a starting player on the first SHHS varsity football team, and probably the fastest on the team in his "Quik" shoes; someone to be held in awe by a pipsqueek freshman wannabe trying very hard just to make the "C" (lightweight) squad. That said, I miss that he is no longer with us. He is/was an important part of early SHHS history.
