My deepest Condolences to Rose, Niall and Brian, and the extended family, on Steve's sad passing.

I started in the CBS in 1965, and Steve taught us through to leaving Cert in 1970. An absolute gentleman and great teacher.

I used to meet Steve periodically at vintage rallies through the years. I had an old BMW 2002 he loved and we met at Tracy's the Heath, Portlaoise on several occasions.

Very sad to see him leave.
May he rest in peace.

To Stevie, my former teacher.

I was deeply saddened to hear of Stevie’s passing. He was far more than just a teacher to me; he was a true mentor who shaped not only my education but my outlook on life. As a teacher of history, Stevie had a remarkable gift for bringing the past to life. His lessons were never just about dates or events, but about understanding people, choices, and the lessons history teaches us about who we are and where we come from.

Through his passion for history, he inspired curiosity, critical thinking, and a deep respect for our shared past. His patience, encouragement, and genuine care for his students made a lasting impression that I will always be grateful for. He had a way of engaging everyone in the room, making learning meaningful and memorable, and his influence reached far beyond the classroom.

Stevie’s dedication, warmth, and quiet wisdom left a mark on all who had the privilege of knowing him. The lessons he taught, especially his love of history and learning, will continue to live on through the many lives he influenced.

My heartfelt commiserations to Brian and Niall, and to all the Crofton family during this very difficult and painful time. May you find strength and comfort in the outpouring of love and in the many cherished memories shared with Stevie.

May he rest in eternal peace, and may his legacy as a teacher and mentor continue to inspire future generations.
Sincere condolences to Niall and all the Crofton family on the passing of Steve.
