We haven’t posted much in quite a while but this was too important not to.
On July 11, 2023 we lost a member of the TSS Graphics family.
Steve Landry was an “unofficial” employee. He was with us from the beginning and didn’t want pay (although we would show our appreciation in different ways). He just wanted to help. When he wasn’t working for the local highway department or taking care of his mother, he would regularly come down to our shop and help out any way he could. His physical disabilities never stopped him.
Prepping vehicles, sorting decals, sweeping the floor all were done happily. He would even go on the road for installs and occasionally handcuff himself with scrap vinyl (see attached photo). His sense of humor and unique laugh were unforgettable.
Steve loved to help close up shop for the night. It was like a ritual. Closing the bay doors and making sure everything was locked. And then we would end up hanging out and talking for a bit before
turning the lights out. Car shows, Harbor Freight, his fiancee and Canada were the usual topics (But Mostly Canada). Canada, Canada, Canada. He loved his Canada and could artfully insert Canada into
almost every conversation.
There was so much more to Steve than what is written here. The many,many people who knew him understand this.
The only solace to us at TSS is that Steve was with the woman he loved in the place he loved when he passed. He was in Heaven before he got to Heaven. And part of his spirit will always be overlooking the River
Bourgeois.
Our thoughts are with his family and friends.
We will miss you greatly and the shop won’t be the same without you. Thank you Stevie.
