STELLAR'S STORY
From Inferno Event Directors, Melia & Sammy Lucid:
The Stellar Impact Award is a heartfelt tribute to our beloved son, Stellar Zevi. Welcoming our twin boys, Qwest and Stellar, into the world was the greatest joy of our lives. Yet, with broken hearts, we share that Stellar passed away shortly after birth due to complications in the NICU. His middle name, Zevi, means "wolf," and he was named after the Sirius Star—known as the Wolf Star—a symbol of his unmatched brightness, strength, and the profound light he brought to our lives, even in his brief time with us. Stellar’s impact is everlasting, and his memory will forever guide us like the brightest star in the sky. Through this award, we honor his legacy by recognizing studios that radiate that same brilliance and inspire others in our Inferno family, just as Stellar continues to inspire us every day. We love and miss you always, our Stellar boy.
