Some people leave an impression.

Steve left a legacy.

He was the friend who showed up. The brother who made you laugh until your stomach hurt. The doctor who cared deeply. The guy who could quote movies at the perfect moment and somehow make everyone feel like they belonged.

More than ten years after his passing, people are still sharing stories about him. Still laughing about him. Still missing him.

That's why this outing matters.

On July 18, we're gathering at Timber Trace Golf Club to celebrate a life that continues to impact so many others.

If Steve touched your life—or if you'd simply like to help us continue the good that has come from his legacy—we'd love to have you join us.

Our family is deeply honored to carry on Steve’s legacy. He was an extraordinary person—son, brother, uncle, husband, father, athlete, physician, and loyal friend—and this event is a meaningful way to celebrate his life and the impact he continues to have on so many.

Every year, we come together for one reason: Steve. 💚

If you knew him, you probably remember the movie quotes, the goofy sense of humor, the bright shoes that somehow became part of his signature look, and the way he could make everyone around him feel important.

Steve was larger than life.
Brilliant enough to become a colorectal surgeon, yet somehow still the funniest guy in the room. He loved fiercely—his family, his friends, his patients, his teammates. He was the person you wanted in your corner no matter what life threw at you.

And even now, more than 10 years later, people still show up because of the impact he had on their lives.

That’s what this outing is about.

The 11th Annual Stephen Swistak, M.D. Memorial Golf Classic is happening July 18th at Timber Trace Golf Club, and we would truly love to fill this course with people who want to celebrate an amazing man while supporting causes that continue his legacy of hope, generosity, and compassion.

If you’ve been thinking about registering, sponsoring, golfing, donating, or simply sharing this post — please do. Every single person helps keep Steve’s spirit alive.
