Steven M. Foley was a counselor-in-training in 1987 and assistant quartermaster in 1988.
On April 15, 1989, Steve, 15, and his father, Charles, were killed in a plane crash in a remote
mountain area near Lynch, Kentucky. They were headed to North Carolina for a family reunion.
Services were held at the College Church of Wheaton. Steve was a sophomore at Wheaton North High School, where he was a member of the Latin Club, the gymnastics team and the marching band. He is survived by his mother, two brothers, a stepbrother, and his grandmother. |
Brian Habing recalls,
Steve was part of the legendary Cabin 6 that won the “messy cabin” award or the “clean cabin” award five of the six weeks in 1987. He was one of the good ones...he would go the extra mile and knew what it meant to be on camp staff. The next year [1989] just before the start of camp, the camp director [Kevin Lamm] gave out Good Turn tokens to the staff members. Mark Wallace, some of the others, and I dedicated ours to Steve, tossing them into the river. |
