Subject: RE: Obit: Stevenson Palfi RIP (Dec 2005)
Cindy and Al,

Now here's a voice from the past. I lived on Dorchester Avenue in Chicago and on occasion would babysit for "Stevie" and Cindy Palfi. I have often wondered what happened to them. The racial shifts in Chicago at that time mean that everyone I knew from the "old neighborhood" moved away...Palfi's, Nolans, etc.

For whatever reason, I had not run across his name before, even though he was apparently a gifted film maker.

I was sorry to read of Stevenson's death...and imagine the despair that usually precedes that act for someone. At the same time it sounds like his life was a gift to many. I am so sorry that he felt he could not continue developing that gift.

My condolances to his family.
