To Susan & Family,

My deepest condolences for your loss. I only recently learned of Steve´s passing, and it has left me deeply saddened. I am Steve´s first cousin, writing from Greece, and though time and distance may have kept us apart in recent years, I have never forgotten the bond of family we shared.

Steve was an incredibly talented and kind-hearted person. I admired his journey from acting to design, and I will always remember him with warmth, respect, and love.

Please know that my thoughts are with you during this difficult time. If there is ever a way to connect, I would be grateful.

With sincere sympathy,
Stavros Tongalidis

He was truly one of my favorite clients, and I always looked forward to our conversations-especially when we talked movies. He had such a great sense of humor and a unique perspective that made every chat memorable. I´ll genuinely miss those moments and the connection we shared. Such a sweet man. Will be having fried chicken from Teddy's in his honor. Wishing comfort and peace to his loved ones during this difficult time.
