Beverly and Jerry Becker.
Steve was an adventurous
man with many hobbies,
including collectables and
cultivation of plants. He
was acknowledged as one
of the first licensed medical
marijuana caregivers in the
state. He survived cancer with
RSO and became a well-
known leader in the field of
medical marijuana.
He also jumped out of
airplanes, scuba dived around
the world and loved music,
sharing these adventures with
good friends and, lastly, a trip
to Hawaii with Harriet. He
was a kind, helpful, good man
who will be missed by many
devoted friends throughout
the country.

his devoted partner, Harriet
Cohen Finn; cousins, Beverly
Becker, Jerry Becker and Ilene
Kaiser. He is also survived
by special friends, Linda and
Brian Shear and numerous
friends throughout the
community.
He was the treasured son of
the late Beatrice and the late
Jack Lovinger.
