Unfortunately I never had the chance to meet Royal Stephen Leo Shoup. My good friend Royal spoke very highly of his father and loved him dearly. I was fortunate enough to hear all the story’s about his father and the good times they have shared together. Royal’s father brought into this world a fine young man, family oriented, morally sound and a wonderful member of our society. Our prayers are with him and his family.
Steve had a great sense of life and humor. Always had a smile to pick me up. He will be missed. Prayers for the whole family. All our Love
My one and only “Son”, I will miss you so much, my heart breaks every time I think of you , I will love you always.
