Steven Alex Cook

July 12, 1974 - December 10, 2005

Everyone agrees that Steve was the best brother, son, friend, and lover. He was selflessly generous, enormous with love and courageous with any obstacles sent his way. There aren't enough words in any language to describe his importance to the world and everyone around him. But God knows and so does all who knew him. He was a renaissance man.

He was "DJ Dopalicious".

He is survived by his parents, Pat and Bill, his brothers, Bill and Chris, and by countless number of friends and loved ones. We will celebrate Steve's life on Thursday, December 15th at 8:00 pm at the Rogue Valley Unitarian Universalist Fellowship at 87 Fourth Street in Ashland. All are welcome. Party will follow.
