It is with crushed hearts that Chuck and I let you know of the sudden passing of our precious daughter Stephanie; 34 years was not enough time. Deeply saddened are her sister Kim and doggy companion – Miles.
We appreciate the number of calls and texts we have received from Stephanie’s friends describing their love for her and sharing “epic” Steph stories. Truly comforting during this time.
We have chosen to celebrate Stephanie’s life in a non-traditional way that honors what she loved. Stephanie loved the ocean and her dog Miles more than most anything. Her Celebration of Life will take place on Sunday, December 5, 2021 from 12:30 pm to 3:30 pm at Costa d’Este Resort (3244 Ocean Drive) in Vero Beach, Florida.
This was our last vacation trip with Stephanie to celebrate her recent master’s degree and she chose the place because Miles had free run of the hotel and beach; leash free. Miles had, as she said, “the bestest time”. A gathering time in the Crystal Ballroom to remember Stephanie through pictures and stories will be held between 12:30 pm and 2:30 pm, with a Celebration of Life ceremony beginning at 2:30 pm on the beach.
In lieu of flowers, we kindly ask you to consider a donation to Jamie’s Dog Rescue in Miami, Florida to honor Steph’s love for dogs and the special care Jamie gave in taking in and adopting out a stray Steph found in South Beach (more to this story…). Donation information: https://jamiesrescue.com/donate/
We welcome all who wish to help us honor Stephanie’s life on December 5, 2021.
Debbie and Chuck
