Steve Mostyn, a top Democratic donor and prominent Houston trial lawyer, has died. He was 46.
According to a statement released by his wife, Amber, Mostyn died Wednesday after “a sudden onset and battle with a mental health issue.” She did not disclose the cause of death.
“Steve was a beloved husband and devoted father who adored his children and never missed any of their sporting activities. He was a true friend, and a faithful fighter for those who did not have a voice,” she said.
The statement also said: “If you or a loved one are thinking about suicide, or experiencing a health crisis, call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline right now at 1-800-273-8255.”
Mostyn is also survived by his daughter, Ava, his son, Mitch and his nephew, Skyler Anderson.
My heart breaks for the Mostyn family. May they find peace and comfort. Texas Monthly and the Chron have more.
