I knew Stephen as a kind and very professional teaching colleague, even though we taught in different subject areas. I also remember him as the first person I climbed Mount Fisher with many years ago in the late fall. Our hike included an extra couple of km up the access road since his little car couldn't handle the road once it got very rough. Despite this, and less than ideal conditions (some snow) Stephen persevered and we made it to the top. It was worth being late to a thanksgiving dinner! I also appreciate Stephens extraordinary contributions to the arts in so many ways. He was a special person and he will be missed by many.. Alan Ansell

I remember Stephen as a kind and gentle man . I treasure memories of times I was lucky enough to be in various Centre 64 productions with him. His strong stage presence was a treat to behold. I am so sad that he has died but was relieved to hear that his death was peaceful and pain free. Pippa Blake

Mr. Waterhouse was an incredible teacher and an inspiration to many, he will be missed. He convinced me to take on a role in The Drunkard and inspired me to take chances. My condolences to his family. Dan Plant Selkirk Grad 1988

Our condolences to Amy, Sarah, their families and dear friend Elizabeth. We were aware of Stephen's involvement in the arts; in particular, theatre at Centre 64, as conversations often came up in the coffee room where late Rosemary and I (Rose) worked. In earlier years, we met Stephen at races around the community, shared bits of conversation at the Key City Theatre and finally in summer 1987 Stephen and Fred took their final courses for their Masters Degree at Gonzaga University. A delightful man. May is soul rest in peace In Sympathy Fred and Rose Stevens

Me Waterhouse was one of a handful of exceptional teachers I had at Selkirk - he ignited a love of literature for me because of that class. He left a great legacy in Kimberley- we should all be so lucky.

I remember working with Steve on my line and "singing" for both my part of Will in Oklahoma and Alfi in My fair lady. If I forgot lunch he would supply me with his egg in the hole. Not only that but both he and Rosemary were great friends of our family. We shared many years of great Christams tree hunts together. He will be greatly missed. Please accept the condolences from the entire Zinovich family.

So sorry for your loss Amy, Sarah,Kurstun and Elisabeth. Steve was a wonderful man who will be missed. My fondest memory of Steve is when we were training in the Kimberley Fencing Club at Centre 64..so many years ago. Steve gave much to our community. Thinking of all of you and your families.

He talked me into participating in the class musical Oliver (something I would normally never do) and it ended up being a huge blast! One of the best moments of my time at Selkirk. Rest in peace, Mr. Waterhouse.

Sincere condolence to Steve's family. I remember him as a teacher but more as a fellow rugby player... Steve certainly added character to our lives.
