My sincerest condolences to Noreen and family. Steve was a well known and respected officer with Peel and an integral part of “The Hill” as 21 Division became known as by the members of the Service.

“As the sun surely sets: dawn will see it arise, for service, above self, demands its own prize. You have fought the good fight: life’s race has been run, and peace, your reward, for eternity begun. And we that are left, shall never forget, rest in peace friend and colleague, for the sun has now set”.

My heart goes out to you Noreen , and the family for the loss of your dear husband. I hope your happy memories will help you through this difficult time.

Noreen, our condolences to you and your family on Steve’s passing. He was always a good friend and very helpful. I will miss our coffee meets and though he has not been able to golf for a couple of years I always enjoyed playing together both while we were working and with the group after retirement.

I am so sorry to hear of Steve’s passing. My heartfelt condolences to Noreen and family. My thoughts are with you

Noreen and family, my sincere condolences on Steve’s passing. Many years have gone by as I reflect upon having had the privilege of working with Steve at 21 division during the 70s. Steve was kind hearted, hardworking and a great example of what a police officer should be.
RIP Stephen

Our silly little song will never be sung again. Miss you. Love, Big Bro.

My condolences to you and your family and friends

My Deepest condolences to the Brigden family. Steve will live on in the memories of the people who knew him. I was privileged to have been assigned to Records Services as a co-op student in high school (36 years ago) and subsequently hired by Staff Sergeant Brigden once my placement was completed. I have him to thank for being given the opportunity to be employed by PRP and will be forever grateful ♥️

Steve was, without doubt, one of the best, kindest, and most respected officers I ever had the privilege of working with and for. His integrity was unmatched. Aside from being an excellent officer and investigator he was an even better supervisor who genuinely cared for his people. Another one of the greats taken from us far too soon. I offer condolences to Noreen and his family on behalf of myself and my wife, Sue. May you rest in peace Steve.
.
Wishing you peace to bring comfort, courage to face the days ahead and loving memories to forever hold in your hearts.

To Noreen and family, my sincere condolences. My colleagues and I had the privilege of working for Steve for four years at 21 CIB. He was highly regarded by all of us as someone who led by example and could be counted upon to work with us shoulder to shoulder, always steering us in the right direction. He had a great sense of humour and we enjoyed many a good laugh together. He was truly someone who cared about his people and PRP was fortunate to have had a man like Steve for so many years. Though he will be missed by all of us, our fond memories shall live on.

To Noreen , family, and extended family,
My sincerest condolences to all of
you as we share the sadness brought
on by the untimely loss of one of our
dearest brothers /friends/ and colleagues ,.Steve was not only a
perfect role model for the newer. ‘
younger Police officers; he was one
of thr finest human beings I ever had
the honor of knowing. Steve, from the
time I first met you and you expressed an interest in following me in to our
chosen profession as a proud member
of the Peel Regional Police Service..
We were of like mind with all of the
fine points of working in our chosen field,, and I could never show you just
how proud of you I became as I followed
your many accomplishments and noble
endeavours throughout your tenure,
You completed almost twice the years of service that I did , but even as an outsider I was able to be a spectator
watching an epic story evolve. You
have so much to be proud of with your ever growing extended family and I always felt that anyone who had the pleasure of meeting you would walk
away a better human being.

Steve, so long good friend, and know that your place in heaven I will be
filled with great things.

Deepest condolence to Steve’s family and extended family at this sad time.
Steve and I joined at the same time, went through recruit 101, in service 101 together, went to Aylmer together and spent many years at 21 Div. He was #615 and I was #613.
Steve was a great officer but more importantly a real gentleman and true friend.
He will be greatly missed by all.

My sincere condolences to Noreen and family, both blood and blue, at the loss of Steve. He was a gentleman and will be missed by all.

Deepest condolences to Steve’s family and loved ones. When I was transferred to “The Hill” Steve welcomed me graciously and with humour. He didn’t know me but his innate kindness was so obvious and much appreciated. Our chats and shared laughs were awesome. Steve was a great officer and supervisor. Above all he was a wonderful person. I am honoured to have known him. So very sorry for this sad loss. Sympathies to all.

So many good and humorous memories when we worked at the old 21 Division.We were on the same Platoon when Steve started and his sense of humour was evident . In those days, Coppers stuck together and supported each other no matter what. Just wish that some of today’s young Officers had the opportunity to work with him. Rest In Peace brother, your journey continues.

Our condolences to Noreen.and all of the family.and his friends. Steve was a gentleman who was respected by all that knew him. An excellent officer, Investigator and Supervisor.
May you rest in peace Steve.
God bless you my friend.

Steve was one of the sweetest people I ever had the privilege of knowing.

«Je m’ennuie de toi déjà.
Je te n’oublierai jamais.
Repose-toi mon oncle, sans douleur et en paix.»

Our condolences to Noreen and the family. Steve had the qualities of a great leader and a good friend. He inspired and motivated people. While exercising empathy, he also expected people to perform to their full potential. Steve was an officer and a person who I relied on to get the job done during my brief time at 21 Division. Steve touched many lives in so many positive ways. Steve leaves a legacy his family can be so proud of.. We are sorry for Steve’s passing and, at the same time celebrate his life.

My sincere condolences. Worked with Steve for several years. I always enjoyed his company. He and Noreen visited us in Florida with the Pattons several years ago . He was a class act and a all around good guy. R.I.P. Steve

Steve and I worked at 21 during the 70’s and crossed paths many times over the years.
A great guy and gone much too early. RIP
Don Ferrier
