After Stephen's death Allison shared a moving statement with People Magazine, where the widow spoke of of his legacy and the positive impact in which he left on the world.

"Stephen lit up every room he stepped into. He valued family, friends and community above all else and leading with love and light was everything to him," she said.

Adding: "To say he left a legacy would be an understatement, and his positive impact will continue to be felt."
