Steve came by my studio about 3 weeks ago to ask about a local B&B. We had not seen him in several years. It was good to see the man that I remebered as an artist in his cooking, a very hard working man and a kind and generous human. We photographed Jamie when she was 6 or 7. We remember the Tsoulos's as amazing people to know. It was always a joy to see and talk with Steve. I know that the spirit and joy that made Steve will continue in Jamie and her sister. Our prayers are with you. Larry Moore

It was with shock and sadness that I learned of the passing of Mr. Tsoulos. I never knew the man personally, but my husband and I simply loved his restaurant, Stefano's. We beleived, without any doubt, that his restaurant was the BEST in the upstate!! We celebrated many special moments there and will always think fondly of the man who was behind the kitchen door. He will be missed. Our sincere condolences to his family and friends.
