Steven Nagi

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Steven Nagy: devoted son, beloved brother, cherished uncle, and friend. Steven was born on December 28, 1969 and passed away on February 25, 2026. Steven is survived by his loving sisters Sue Padva (husband Timothy Padva) and Amy Barbera (husband Timothy Barbera); and his nieces and nephews Sarah Wallach, Kathryn James, Matthew, Emily, Andrew, Lillian and Grant; and his cousins Cynthia Intindola, Michael Intindola and Alison Sturla.

Steven grew up in Wayne, New Jersey and spent many summers at the family farm in upstate New York, where at the age of three, went on a hike in the snow, lost his boot and a "bunny hopped around him". He also excelled at distracting bulls from harming his little sister and cousins by hanging by his thigh from a barbed wire fence after jumping over it. He was a natural athlete, coached often by his dad and excelled at football, basketball and baseball. He was also an avid fisherman and spent as much time as possible on the water on his dad's boat. As a young adult, Steven moved to Alaska where he endured long hours working on fishing boats. From there he moved to Colorado where he settled in and worked as a sous chef at the Hearthstone Restaurant in Breckenridge for nearly three decades. During this time he never missed returning to the east coast for a month, twice a year, to spend time with his family either at "The Farm" in upstate New York or in OBX, North Carolina. Some of his "favorite" OBX activities were dancing in the sand with sparklers in his hands to "Chariots of Fire," or chalking up his pool stick by spinning the bottom with his foot with a silly smirk. All of this just to make his family smile. His favorite places were always outside in nature where he found his most joy fishing and camping with his buddy Bubba, skiing, hiking and just plain hanging out.

Steven was quiet, easy going, caring, and gentle. He enjoyed the simple things in life. 

He was loved immensely by his entire family. Fatboy, Uncle Penguin, Farmer Steve, we will all have a hole in our hearts, until we meet again.He is preceded in death by his parents, Patricia and Thomas Nagy.As per his wishes, cremation has taken place. 

A private family gathering will be held at a later date.
