Steven L. Wilkinson, 49, was born on November 28, 1966 in Buffalo, New York. He passed away peacefully Thursday July 23, 2015, at his home after a courageous and a hard fought battle with illness. He is predeceased by his mother Dorothy Wilkinson and brother Thomas Ferrer and is survived by his father Thomas Wilkinson, brother Robert Wilkinson and sister and brother Linda and Michael Shaia. He is also survived by his nieces and nephews. Steve left a lasting impression wherever he went. He'd want us to remember all the good times and celebrate his life. All who were fortunate enough to spend time with him would know about his amazing cooking, his fancy dance moves, optimistic outlook on life, love for music and generosity. All services will be private and at the convenience of the family. Thank you for all your kind words and support.
