Remembering Steve Masters

Blog banner

It is with a heavy heart that we share with you the news that on Sunday the 12th May 2019, Vertical Leap’s Services Director, Steve Masters, passed away.

Earlier this year Steve had been diagnosed with terminal cancer and despite a great deal of uncertainty about what that meant for his long term prognosis, Steve dealt with the news in his typical calm and stoic nature, making sure that all of those around him were OK. 

He maintained his sense of humor and work ethic; and as was typical of Steve, chose to embrace the situation and find the good in it.  There are no adequate words to describe how much we and his customers will miss him. 

Below are links to Steve’s book he wrote about his experience with cancer; and also to a Just Giving page Steve created to provide support for his family.

If you have any questions about this or anything else, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
