SALEM - Steve (Butch) was born to Curtis L. & Bettie J. Crain in Long Beach, California & grew up in Torrance CA. He attended Carson High School & joined the army in 1968. He was proud of serving two tours in Vietnam. He was an excellent mechanic & was very disappointed when his health no longer permitted him to tinker on cars. His parents preceded Steve in death. He is survived by his sister & brother-in-law, Sharon & Raymond Fordham, nephews Brian Fordham & Scott Fordham (Marnie). The family thanks Mike Coleman & family & staff for their loving care at Steve's adult foster care home. They were family to him. There are no services at Steve's request.
