About | Stephen 'Grube' Gruber, a man whose laughter was as hearty as his famous pit beef sandwiches, took his final bow on August 12, 2024. Born in the bustling city of Baltimore, Maryland, Stephen's zest for life was evident from the very start. He departed this world just as he had lived in it – with warmth and spirit – in the comforting surroundings of Catonsville, Maryland. Stephen, known for his friendly banter and thoughtful gestures, graduated from Howard High School in 1974 with a diploma in one hand and a knack for making friends in the other. He wasn't just the class clown; he was the whole circus, leaving a trail of chuckles and fond memories wherever he went. |

Very sad to see Steve’s passing. He was a good friend who always had insights and laughs. At one point, he arranged a high school reunion at a hall in Arbutus. It was a memorable evening. Rest in peace, Steve. You were a great guy and a good friend.
