Title: RIP Steve Matthews!! 20 Years!
Post by: webdiva on August 28, 2006, 04:48:28 AM
Sorry I meant to post something here back in July but forgot, only posted on the Yahoo group, so this is a bit late. My brother was in Straight Springfield from 83-85. Took his life July 3rd of 1986. Just past the 20 year anniversary of his death. I heard about the memorial service, definitely plan on flying home for that. He deserves to be remembered properly as do all the others. Peace!

Edit: (http://http://www.webdiva.org/straight/stevesm.jpg) (http://http://www.webdiva.org/straight/steve5.jpg) I meant to add these. The one on the left he was in straight prob. what most of you remember him looking like, that's the last pic i ever took with him. i was about 14. And the one on the right was right after he got out of military school as you can see he was already 3 times my size! LOL I kid about the military school that came just a littttle bit later. But damn what a cute picture eh? ::nod::

when i was seven stepped about maybe a yr and a half,me and 2 other seven stepper,Scott w. and Keven G took me with them to hang out with Steve......i'm not sure if he ran or if he was through.......from what i was told,he ran away 7 times!...is that some kind of record or what? No one can judge whether or not he liked it there,huh?....he hung out with us that night.....we went to a swing under 236 little river turnpike in annandale /fairfax area....{an "old druggie hang out"}.....where annandale and fairfax just about meet , at the bridge on the fairfax side,was an old ballfield and parking.....then under the bridge there was a really really awsome swing made of cable wire! we'd spend hours down there in the dark swinging from one side to the other at a very fast pace! it was a little scary at first but after you got a handle on it,it was cool!..after 7 step meetings,we'd meet in the parking lot,and i'd talk a bunch of them into going there.One time we took Steve,andthat,was my last time around steve........at least i know he had fun the night he was with me and the others!...does anyone else remember this or not? there were a bunch of 7 steppers that hung out down there with whoever.....7 stepped or not......there were a lot of 7 steppers in Virginia that were cool with ppl that didn't finish.......hippie

I got the razor at my wrist 'Cause I can't resist I've got this fever burnin' fist That does as I wish But when I get downtown And see what's around I just know there's got to be A better place to be found
Oh, God help me The river runs red and I think I'm dyin'
Well I knew there'd come a day When my mind would say 'Hey are you afraid' Well all I know is that I been down here tryin' Well, I'll bleed on through the night I suppose I'll bedead by the morning light No don't be surprised if you mind when you find me
