Steve’s family shares
Our beloved Steve was born on January 23, 1998, and grew up in a home filled with love alongside his parents and his brother Dima. From a young age, he stood out for his big heart, extraordinary sensitivity and contagious joy for life. He loved his deeply, shared a close bond with his brother, and cherished his niece, who was the light of his life. He taught all of us the true meaning of giving.
Steve loved cars, nature, and camping. He was organized, always ready for anything, and above all showed genuine care for every person—young and old alike. He worked in a company serving people with disabilities, was a truck driver, and was deeply loved at his workplace for his kindness and constant smile. In recent years, he was in a loving relationship, an anchor for his partner and a warm, loving father figure to her children.
On October 7th, we discovered that Steve had been at the Nova Festival. From that moment, a desperate search began -unanswered calls, visits to hospitals, testimonies from survivors, while we held this persistent hope that he would return. On the night of October 11th, there was a knock at the door followed by the devastating news. Steve had been murdered at the festival, in the prime of his life. In an instant our world collapsed, leaving behind a painful silence beyond words.
Steve was an angel on earth, a rare soul who brought light wherever he went. We continue his path—a path of joy, generosity, and light. He lives on with us in every memory, every candle we light, and every heartbeat. He will always be a son, a brother, a friend, and a beloved soul beyond replacement. We will carry his name forever, with love and endless longing. Donate Now!
