The family at 12th Ave’s Osteria La Spiga will remember a loved one Sunday. The restaurant will be closed for regular business to host an “open benefit” for the family of employee Stefvin Caswell.
Caswell, an avid skateboarder and artist, died Thursday following a collision with a truck while he was skateboarding in Shoreline.
The following message was posted to the La Spiga Facebook page Friday along with this photo of Caswell:
Last night we lost a co-worker, a skateboarder, an artist, a friend. An all around very good person. We miss you Stefvin
my heartfelt condolences to all those for whom stefvin meant something… i can’t help but think this comments section would be rather fuller had there been gun violence involved rather than vehicular violence, but regardless, he will be missed…
to everyone who knew him and his family for this terrible loss.
I loved his art and I will think of him and remember him fondly for his creative contributions to my time in Seattle. I’m very sorry for the loss.
I think it has more to do with the news coming through on the weekend than how stefvin died.
Very sorry for the loss of this young man.
I didn’t meet him, but saw him as my friend (and gf of Stefven) cut his hair at my school hours before the accident. I was with my friend at the time she found out and the story has left a haunting feeling. I am sorry for everyone’s loss. This is a terrible and tragic way for anyone to die. Anyone know what has happened to the driver? I hope it wasn’t a hit and run
