STEVEN
GERARD
PARDO, 50, of
Livonia, died sud-
denly on June 27,,
2020.
Steve is survived by his
wife of 18 years, Leslie
Kollin Pardo; his parents,
Marilyn and Paul Pardo;
sister, Christine (Scott)
Updike; in-laws, Arnold and
Sharyanne Kollin; brothers-
in-law, Andy (Elena) Kollin
and Jimmy (Sheryll) Kollin;
nieces and nephews, Max
Kollin, Elijah Kollin, Katelyn
Wehrle, Sophie Kollin, Quinn
Wehrle, Lily Kollin, and Carly
and Emma Updike.
Steve was a veteran jour-
nalist for more than 25 years,
spending more than 22 years
with the Detroit News, covering
high-profile legal cases includ-
ing the controversial Detroit
water and sewer shutoffs
of 2014. During his tenure
with the News, Steve was the
Breaking News Editor, Food
Editor and, in 1999, while
covering holiday shopping at
Fairlane, met a lovely young
public relations executive and
his future wife, Leslie Kollin.
This was a man who loved
life. Steve didn’
t just cook, he
entered and won high-stakes
chili cookoffs. He won two
Greek Iron Chef competitions.
He wisely became a compe-
tition judge to taste the area’
s
best BBQ, fruit pies and pizza.
He was an officiant at numer-
ous weddings. Steve bravely
wore a kilt to his wedding, a
top hat to all formal events
and a red clown nose when he
went to the circus.
In Steve’
s passing, the Pardo
and Kollin families have lost
a person who loved family
above all, a man who created
traditions with nieces and
nephews and always found
ways big and small to connect
and help with parents, aunts
and uncles and distant rela-
tives. In fact, no matter the
distance, Steve found a way to
visit and celebrate family with
relatives worldwide.
A private funeral was held
on June 30, 2020, officiated
by Rabbi Paul Yedwab of
Temple Israel. To best honor
the memory of Steve Pardo,
don’
t take things too seriously;
spend time with your fami-
ly and, if you feel compelled,
please donate to the charity
of your choice in Steve’
s
name. Arrangements by Ira
Kaufman Chapel.
