Step by Step cast reunites at 90s Con — Remembers late Suzanne Somers
“Suzanne gave the most beautiful, thoughtful gifts and she was a person of immense style and glamor in her real life, and I will never forget [that ] and I still have them. One Christmas, she gave me a pair of Prada cashmere tights,” Keanan, who played Dana Foster on the show said. “Okay, so it's Prada. You know, fancy and everything. But beyond that, she was like, ‘These will keep you warm. And even if you have a long skirt, you could just wear these underneath to keep you warm.’ [It was] so sweet. She will be missed.” 
Lakin, who played Alicia Lambert in Step by Step added, “Growing up with her and watching her as a woman, as a businesswoman, as someone who was a huge star, who had a bright light, who was so gorgeous, who was also so down to earth, and someone I just really admired. She was someone that made me think as a young female in Hollywood, you can be kind and you can be generous and you can be successful and all of those things don't have to be mutually exclusive.”
“She was so sweet and loving. Her heart was so big, and we miss her,” she concluded.
As for Watson, who played Karen Foster on the cult 90s show, the actress recalled her memories with Somers, saying, “For me, it was being able to do the mother-daughter reunion pageant where we tap dance together and sang. …That was so amazing. Like, the highlight of my career.”
Jason Marsden, Rich Halke from Step by Step, recalled how he once got to “smooch” Somers in a blooper reel. The actor, 49, also claimed that Somers was a “lovely, amazing, human being.”
Step by Step ran between 1991 and 1998 for seven seasons. The series followed the combined Foster-Lambert family navigating life together.
