This memorial website was created in memory of our loved one, Steve Murrietta, 69 years old, born on September 12, 1945, and passed away on July 4, 2015. We will remember him forever.
I remember when I was with you, steph, and u re- introduced me and his comment was...,"oh... You are the friend the other one doesn't like!!!! " I laughed so hard especially when I saw the look on your face steph... Oh the memories.... You will be missed papa Steve... Watch over all your family, friends and loved ones!!! RIP!
Through the brief time I have spent with you, you have taught me that people need to keep family close, and seeing the love that this family has for each other has made me a better person. Rest in peace papa Steve. You will be remembered always in my heart.
Tonight we were remembering the story of when you first moved back here 6 years ago. You thought it was so amazing that the deer would come so close to the house. You would go to the store and buy carrots for them. Nothing like that happens in LA
Papa Steve I will always remember all of good jokes you told us always bringing a good laugh to the room. My best memory of you is when we got tricked into going to the twilight movie and we got shhhh for making jokes threw the whole movie about glittery vampires!!! We always had a great time watching movies together and cracking jokes I will miss you dearly and love you lots ps don't worry I get the number from that truck
STEVEN, when I think of you I think of Logan St, all the times you made me laugh you and Carmen and the little car of yours that we would use to go up and down the strip, how you would always have something funny to say to make everyone laugh that voice love the memories thanks RiP
I asked Ray about when he first knew Steve. He said he was Steve's best man at the wedding and Steve was SO nervous and having trouble with his tux. Ray had been to the prom and in another wedding or 2, so together they were able to help get everything together. I always think of the time we all went out to eat and Steve asked the waitress when her baby was due. You guessed it---not pregnant. But pretty funny. He will be missed--no better legacy than that.
Papa Steve, you were definitely one of the funniest people I know and you knew how to put a smile on anyone's frown; I will miss you always and will be forever thankful to have known you Rest in Peace
"Papa Steve" It was such an honor knowing you. We loved your great sense of humor and your carefree attitude. You had the best sense of humor and such a contagious laugh. I loved listening to you and Shawn pick on one another.Even though you were Shawns uncle You had a Father / son bond that was strong . I remember when you first got your scooter and just had to take it to walmart and the battery went dead before you got home. You loved having the mobility to do things for yourself. I want to Thank you. Had it not been for you Shawn and I never would have met. Shawn and I giggled every time we heard you call me his girl friend a year, two, almost three years after we got married. We will miss your voice mail messages asking us to bring you a burrito or a quesadilla, then saying "This is Steve.". Rest in peace with the knowledge that We love you We will cherish the memories and we will miss you more with each passing day.
God saw that he was getting tired, A cure was not to be. So He put His arms around him and whispered, "Come with Me." With tearful eyes, we watched him suffer, And saw him fade away. Although we loved him dearly, We could not make him stay. A golden heart stopped beating, Hard working hands to rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us He only takes "The Best".
Dear dad I thought of you today, but that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday and days befor that too. I think of you in silence. I often speak your name. All I have are memories and a picture in a frame, your memory is a keepsake, from which I'll never part. God has you in his arms, I have you in my heart. -unknown-
