ever since steve died i been trying to live with the fact that he is gone. I felt conected to him from the first time i saw him on animal planet. My father was just like him trying to teach me averything about ouer wildlife in sweden. from bugs to bears. i like to teach kids the same and the same day steven died i took a forrest salamander to my daugthers pre-school class. they got to look at it and touch it and see how beatyfull it is. Steve was like a twin to me. i've never meet him but i know we were soulmates. now my hole heart is with terry and their little ones children and animals and i moorn together with you all. Specially terri, bob, little "baby" bob, bindi, mandy and joy and wes. How can i help you. loosing a man, father,mate, hero and menthor with his heart and passion is always worse. look at me i never met him and now i almost look forward to dying because then i will have the chance to meet him again. If you ever need anything. A holliday in the northen sweeden in ouer bush and no people or if bindi wants to start out easy she can come here and do a program on ouer wildlife. no really dangerous animals but still very beatyful and sweet and some in dandger because man is ignorant and stupid( scared). I love you all sinsearly, it fells like i know you. and maybe one day i will se australia zoo and you. my dream as a child was to do just what you all are doing there and just like i wanted to do it. teach teach teach and most of all conserve. God luck bindi. i know you will keep making your daddy "the proudest daddy of them all" dead or alive.he will always be by your side. don't ever doubt that. i'm not that religious but i know that when we die we are not so far away. all my love paula lückner in karlsborg sweden.

I know exactly what you mean. I think it gave me some comfort now that I know Steve has crossed the path and is at peace as Bob sr. said. We will all cross that same path eventually, and then we will be able to see him smile again, somehow. I know. But for now we must grow strong and continue his passion so that the next generations will also feel his enduring spirit.

I personally will never forget someone that had the love , the drive ,the enthusiasm, and the wisdom, to take on a dying planet and try to save so much of it. I pray eveyday that his spirit and love for life has left its mark on so many others that somehow steve will know that his mission was accomplished and he has touched millions like noone else ever has.Never Forget!!!!

You know, I've never been affraid of death. I guess my faith has taught me not to fear, so I just haven't. But knowing that Steve will be there in Heaven when one day hopefully I will be joining him, makes it even better. I can see him now, rubbing the belly of some exstinct mammal, or shouting about " that beautie of a T-REX ", it just makes me wan't to leave this hard planet right now. For I know in my heart that there are no tears in heaven, only love.
God Bless you all.
Love and Aloha,

I hear ya: now Im almost looking forward to it, so i can get up there and see him! But no, with my luck Ill prolly be here for another fifty years or more lOL. but I still cant wait for that day! we will ALL be together and then steve will see what a difference he made!

Unfortunately, I won't get to see him again, cept on TV. Been told all my life what an evil being I am and that I'm "goin the other way" when I die. I can only love my daughter and my chosen family while I'm stuck on this hard planet, then it'll be off to my just desserts I spose.

Im right there with you guys,
I dont want to die ofcourse, but when the time comes and i see the light or whatever it is. I will be calling Steves name as loud as i can until i see him. Im not scared anymore, but my fiance hates talking about it. So if i have any last words to him. It would be "dont worry bubby, Im going with Steve, see you there one day"
never forget Steve.

crikey forever!!!
