Wow. Steve was member of our local club here north of Atlanta for many years. He and I spent lots of hours talking about remote base operating with AllStar (and Xipar) systems. July 2013 NFARL club meeting. tnx Mike / W5JR Alpharetta GA

All,
Steve moved back "home" to northern Indianapolis (Fishers) November 2018. He was suffering from Parkinson's disease and wanted to be close to the rest of his family for care. He had a successful oration for an aortic aneurysm in the spring of 2019. The surgery, however, caused a minor stroke which further amplified the effects of the Parkinson's disease.
This past Tuesday afternoon (1/7) he suffered a ruptured brain aneurysm resulting in a fall that caused further traumatic brain injury. He passed comfortably and without pain at the hospital about 12 hours later [the early morning hours of Wednesday (1/8)] at the age of 66 with his wife and family by his side.
I have been in contact with his son John and he is encouraged by thoughts of those who remember him as the brilliant mind that he was.
I plan on attending his viewing, service, and celebration of life on Sunday and would be more than happy to pass along any "good ol' Steve" stories anyone would like me to share. Steve was a contributor in this technology and I will be sure to pass along to his family how grateful we ALL are for his contributions.
Here is a link to his obituary and final arrangements. https://www.shirleybrothers.com/obituaries/Steven-Henke/
Regards, Scott

I corresponded a number of times with him and he was a wealth of information. Please do post when you know more,
