Many of you are unaware that Steven's Uncle Todd passed away on January 2, 2009. Steven was in the middle of performances with the Victorian Christmas Carol when Todd went in the hospital on december 26 last year. Not to say too much, but Brooke was less than sympathetic and the only chance Steven had to see his uncle for the last time before he succombed to muscular dystrophy (at the age of 31), Steven was in the last week of performances and was told he would not be excused from the performance. Although Todd very much supported Steven in all his creative endeavours and was happier that Steven was doing something he loved instead of sitting by a hospital bed; it has been very hard for him. None of you knew Todd, but you all know and hopefully love Steven. Please give him support at this most difficult time of year for him. Much love from Steven's mom-Catherine

Wish we had known of this earlier as we saw Steven tonight at Avaloch. Frankly, if it had been me I would have told Brook to go screw himself unless I was being paid an exorbitant amount of money to be in this performance. Family comes first over some silly damn play. I'm sure if Steven were to be injured and had to have gone to the hospital they would have found a way for the show to go on with out him. I don't believe I ever met Todd, but it is sad none the less. 31 is too damn young to be checking out. my sympathies to you all.
HANK.

Your so right Hank!! Steven it was the 20th anniversery since I lost my mother on November 1 and it always will kick you but find that 1 thing what ever it is and put it out for you to just see and think of the time when you 2 shared it. Then when you can put it away and save it for when you need it again.

Love you with all my heart, kiddo. As I'm sure your uncle did too. Just remember that he's free now, and watching you in whatever you do. And just as proud of you as I am. Hang in there.......go out and do something in his honor wildly fun that you know he would have loved......it does help. ;D
.........with love, 'Mom'.
