Guestbook

  1. To the Haack Family. I have known Steve for many years,but lost contact with him as we grew older. But I was very sad to hear of his passing. He was a fun guy and he will certainly not be forgotten. From an Old Friend from Martelle, Pam Armstrong

  2. To the Haack Family. Steven was a wonderful co-worker and will truly be missed. He had a special place in his heart for all of us. I miss his smile and his dedicated hard work. He was always willing to jump right in and help out where it was necessary. He will not be forgotten. May God bless you all.
