Steve's first Easter with the Theis family

When Steve and Anne were just dating, Anne invited Steve to her house for Easter with her family. Anne was cooking, and Al, Kathie and Terri arrived first. Al didn't feel well, so he went upstairs to lay down. Steve arrived and the other four had Easter dinner without him. Al came down later, looking ashen, and collapsed on the floor. Fortunately Anne lived across the street from the hospital, so the four loaded him into the back seat of the car and drove him to the ER. While loading him in the car, Anne introduced Steve to Al. Al had a bleeding ulcer and could have died. Steve took great care of Kathie and Terri in the ER waiting room while Anne, employed at the hospital, hounded the ER staff for updates. It was the moment when Anne knew Steve "was the one."
