This absolutely sucks. Steve is one of the best folks I have ever met in bass fishing. Always a handshake and a good word for anyone. I always enjoy visiting with him at FnS events and seeing him out and about on local lakes. He is a true gentleman and one of the truly good ones. Prayers to his family, extended family and friends. He is a huge loss to us all.

This news is very hard to take...have known Steve since the mid 80's when the old Golden Triangle Bass Club was going strong..truly a great guy & a pleasure to be around & loved to talk fishing with anyone. Prayers to the family.

This is a heart-breaker & total surprise for me to hear this terrible news. He was a great friend for many years, we fished against each other in Golden Triangle Bass Club & we were a team fishing the Pro Team Tournaments. Steve was always upbeat & ready to go fishing. My condolences to his wife Kathy, his kids & grandchildren, praying for you. RIP, Steve!!! You will be missed greatly

RIP Steve. We are all in shock about this terrible news. I have never met anyone as lovable as Steve. He could and would make friends with anyone with his contagious smile and personality. He called me last week and was upset because he could not help with the CAST for kids event at Eagle Mountain lake. He had family coming in from out of town but he was still disappointed he didn't get to help. No matter what the cause we could always count on Steve. Let's all pray for his family in this terrible time but I can tell you this ,his Hells gate club as well as all whom he touched in the fishing community is hurting right now and searching for answers. Well let me tell you his heart was true and he is looking down on us while he is fishing the greatest lake in heaven. I bet he is chunking a red shad worm. We will miss you Steve but only for a short time. See you again on the other side. Love you brother.

Friends, This is surely a sad time for all of us, a tremendous loss in the fishing community, a heart breaking loss of the family patriarch, a great loss of a truly kind & loving advocate for Jesus Christ. Steve was the most considerate, caring, and fun to be around fisherman that I have had the pleasure of fishing with. He never made a negative comment about anyone and always found something good say. He greeted everyone with a smile and his positive attitude was contagious. If you were having a bad day just talk with Steve and everything would some how get better. He called me his little buddy and I can still see him doing his knee dance when one of us caught a good fish during a Bass Tournament. We did a lot of Carolina rigging and he would use a 7' leader that's right! a seven foot leader if was so long I deemed it a full McCain! Mostly I fished with a half McCain. I could go on and on about stories where Steve helped others & the fun times we had fishing but my heart is heavy. This just reminds me of Steve's out look that every person in this world has their own cares & worries, if we would just realize that everyone of us is important before we spoke or made a decision that this world would be a better place. Steve's actions and consideration of others spoke this loud and clear. I love you brother and it will be an awesome day when I see you again in heaven. Your little buddy, Larry Ladnier
