as a colleague of mine said at the funeral of his 3 month old son, a person is measured by the number of people he touches and hearts that he opened. it is clear from these comments that steve touched and inspired many.

Terrible news. So very, very sad. Deepest sympathies to the family.

I was running this morning and the IPod was shuffling through my play list. Shortly after I turned into a stiff NE wind this song played:

This song really hit home today. As I thought about Steve's death and what his family & friends must be going through I noticed that the wind was blowing the tears off my face.

I wonder what we could do as a preventive measure since being fit is simply not enough to identify/prevent/remedy this. Any ideas??

Like most, I was in complete disbelief when I heard the news. Here is a guy that did everything right and his life was cut short. I suspect he made up for it by living life fuller than most. It reminds me to not take things for granted and to cherish the things I have. RIP Steve.

Late in posting where I've been away for a few days, very sad news. My condolences to his family and friends.

I just returned from 10 days in Italy, and trying to stay internet free, and saw the article on Velonews. I am just shocked and saddened to hear the news.

My condolences to the Larsen family, and all my friends in Bend who trained with, knew, and cared about Steve.

How utterly sad. My heartfelt condolences to his friends and family, especially to his kids.

Getting news about Steve and his latest accomplishments was always a pleasure and an inspiration to me.

He left a remarkable legacy.

 This was in my email today. I thought it fit.

Dr. Samuel Johnson once observed, “When grief is fresh, every attempt to divert it only irritates.” Whenever we learn someone is grieving the loss of a loved one, the temptation is to rush in, offer comforting words, and then try and divert another’s angst, as if this will somehow help. It probably does help the one reaching out, though often words alone may do little to assuage another’s sorrow. Not that words of comfort are unimportant but maybe it’s simply awareness that you care that carries greater import. A parishioner once told me that when his father died, his minister came to visit, sitting with him for an extended period before leaving without saying a word. “It was,” said the congregant, “among the most meaningful acts of ministry displayed during my grieving.” One of my three brothers recently died and while much comfort was received from the words of many, I can relate to one whose wise clergyperson came and simply sat. Sometimes our mere presence most eloquently states: someone cares. This, however expressed, is among the best gifts we can give those who mourn.
