Steve is also survived by his mother Jacqueline, step-father Robert, and brother David. He is preceded in death by his father, James Ivan Newton.

Best burger goes to Droptop pizza. No doubt about it . Dan’s is not what it used to be and the food is not award worthy. Need some new judges.
It's a voting thing, not a judging thing.
Dan's burger has never treated me wrong. And I like the DropTop burger too.I would never put down someone else's burger, though. I might say someone else has a better one.
Like, I like the Jet's Pizza. But to me, that's a DropTop prize.
These awards are voted by the PEOPLE...not a committee of judges. The people of Saline and Saline area voted for these businesses. I have never had a bad meal at Dan's Downtown Tavern and if something wasn't right I know that it would be corrected. Plus I have had Drop Tops pizza and I found it to be quite good.

While I have some empathy for the family I would bet the proverbial farm that their ancestors would not like it to be rezoned. Disappearing farm land is a national problem not just local.
Agreed. It’s their land and can do as they wish but it’s just a bummer
