Support for Stephen Orlove's Wife and Son

Our friend Stephen Ira Orlove passed away around 3am on March 9, 2025, leaving behind his wife Jessica and 4 year old son Danny.

The last ten weeks of illness have been grueling for Steve and his family. Jessica has been a force, comforting Steve, moving between hospitals, work and home, dealing with a dizzying array of doctors, and all the while trying to maintain some semblance of continuity in Danny's life.

Steve was first hospitalized just after Christmas and though he was briefly home in January before being readmitted, he was never well enough to return to work. A two income household has been a single income household since the start of the year and will continue to be.

Death sucks. It's also expensive. So is life. If you can give anything to Steve's family to help them find a new footing after this devastating loss, it would be a mitzvah.

We’ll share details about Steve’s memorial here as they come together.

Thank you,

Ben Gassman & Josh Zahler
