Steven Huynh: 1956 – 2025
We are saddened to report that we lost Santa Venetia neighbor Steven Huynh who passed away in February at the age of 68. Steven was a 30-year Santa Venetia resident on Adrian Way, along with his wife Kathy Huynh, who owns the Venetia Hair and Nails Salon. Steven was a familiar sight in his “Steven & Son” truck, doing landscaping and gardening around the neighborhood and throughout Marin. He was buried at Mt. Olivet Cemetery. Our condolences go out to Kathy and their family and friends. To read more, visit: https://tinyurl.com/55j57u66
