WESTMINSTER — Steve Cartwright was a great friend to everyone - he was such an easy person to like and to be friends with. When we happened to be together, he was fun; he always had great stories to tell and a very good wit about him. He and my husband got along very well, and we did a lot of laughing together.
It's hard to believe Steve has gone on to another adventure. He loved his daughter so much. I'm sorry for Hayley, who has to go on without him.
He will be missed by so many.

The terms of the decommissioning are critical in ensuring the safest outcome. Public officials...
