Yes I do believe he made a difference in people lives he also made learning about animals and things sooo fun and told people how to and how not to treat animals he was the best at what he done..... Did you hear on the news that another person a 82 year old man was stung by the same thing it actually jumped at him into the boat and stung him through heart and lung and he has survived so far... God Bless...

I did hear about the recent attack on an elderly man.. and they say he lived because he did not remove the stinger. Im not sure it Steve would have still been here today if he had not, and we cant dwell on what we dont know. I just think it's creepy that we've had two attacks so close together.

Youre very right.. Life can be taken from any one of us at any time.. so we shouldn't let a day slip by us without making it the best that we could.. which is what he did. He made a difference in so many lives. Thank you for your comment.

I think it really shocked the world and it was so sad. Ive recently heard that they are going to play the film that he was recording at the time on TV. I wonder if I should watch it or not. I just dont know.

I agree. They did a lot to show that the wild needs to be taken care of and not treated badly. It's sad to see him go.. and I feel for the loss of his family. Im glad that his wife is being strong and she will live through him. Thanks for stopping in.

I think most of us couldn't believe it when we found out it was a sting ray. Who would have thought.. of all things.

Youre right.. He did leave his family behind.. and curious countries who had open ears to hear what he had to teach us. He will be respected for a long time to come.

We were vacationing at the beach and my friend called and told me. My first thought was a crocodile must have killed him but that wasn't the case. It was shocking. I couldn't get it off my mind for quite some time. He was a good man.

I heard about it through MSN.com I think it is very sad and I think it is a great loss for the world. He was very passionate about his work, nature, and about informing people. He will be missed.

It's sad that there are not more people like him. He was a great man to watch on TV and he LOVED HIS JOB!!! No one will be able to come close to the love of his job like he had. Thank you for stopping by and telling us what you think.

Thanks for the comment. It's always nice to hear what others have to say. It was a great loss and it will take time for many hearts to heal.
