Steve Christie
Steve Christie was diagnosed with cancer almost six years ago. He spoke to Buffalobills.com about his illness in October: “I thought it was kind of a personal journey and the only reason I did mention anything at the time, and it wasn’t to too many people…but the only reason I said anything at all, is because I had colorectal cancer and the screening process doesn’t start for your colonoscopies, endoscopies, doesn’t start until your 50. Well, I got diagnosed at 46. So, my whole point was if there’s anything wrong, don’t wait. Get in there and get checked. That’s the only reason I decided to do anything publicly about it and now that come November 20th, it will be five years for me where I’m cancer free.” He is an acrylic painter and also a volunteer coach at Lakewood Ranch High School. working with the kickers and punters and long snappers.
