Stephen is dearly missed by his family, and it is thanks to his brother Peter that we have such great images of Stephen to share. Several of these images were captured by their brother, Alec, who worked in TV production for years. 

Stephen was a longtime friend of Terry Matalas, who, before his tenure on Star Trek: Picard, also worked on both Voyager and Enterprise. It was he who helped to get Stephen's headshots in front of the right people, which in turn led to his roles on these shows. 

Stephen passed away from a sudden progressive illness, to the shock and sadness of his family and friends. We want to especially thank Peter for reaching out to us to ensure that Stephen's memory is very much a part of the Star Trek family. In Peter's own words:

Steve isn't dead, he just went back to the Delta Quadrant.
