He had suffered with PSC for many years and was a regular contributor to this forum. We mourn his loss today. Below is a copy of his obituary.

I am so sorry to hear this. 😢 I may not have been on here too often with questions or problems but when I was Stephen was always there to offer advice/comfort. He will be greatly missed on here. My heart goes out to his family and friends! ---

Stephen was a fantastic moderator here and in a number of other support communities. He worked hard to keep everyone engaged and was always the first to assist and comfort others in need. He touched so many people over the years and will be greatly missed. ---
