Steve was born in Chicago in Dec 19, 1953 and passed away in May 4, 2013. Steve parents were deceased years ago and Steve has no brother or sister. I knew Steve since 1978 and we became friends from the playing racquetball days. In 1984, Steve contacted and invited a Professional racquetball player, Marty Hogan to participate the inauguration ribbon cutting for the opening ceremony for the 1st National Racquetball Tournament for the Deaf (NRAD) and accepted.
Steve and I were Chairpersons for
four NRAD Annual Championships in Chicago, IL. Steve got
inducted in the Hall of Fame in our 25th Anniversary May
2010. Without Steve there will be no NRAD because he saved
all the records, documents, and tournament sites
information for NRAD player as a statistician for many
years. NRAD will miss you and NRAD will
not fail.
Thank you Steve for being my
colleague to work with you for NRAD all the years!

2013 NRAD Championships
I regret to inform you that the
2013 NRAD Championships scheduled for April 26-28, 2013
in Charlotte, NC is cancelled due to very low number of
registered participants. All registered participants
are encouraged to contact Bill Milbach and Mark Heflin for
refunds.
I would like to take this
opportunity to express our sincere thanks to all who took
the time to email us their feedback on whether to proceed
or cancel the tournament, given the low number of
registered participants. For those who registered
and looked forward to playing, we apologize for the
inconvenience caused.
We'll choose a new venue to
host the next annual championships tournament, and
announce the same in due time. Please feel free to
make suggestions via this medium.
..... please don't SKIP it!
We look forward to seeing you soon!
