Stacie was such a sweet, strong woman…no matter how she was suffering, she never complained. I never left her presence without a smile. She was so courageous and so smart, and loved Jazzy with all her heart. Her courage and grace were a model to us all. I’ll miss your smile, Stacie–but I’ll see you again.
Love,
Bethany
Ernie and Jazzy, I have no idea of the pain you have in your heart. What I do know is that she loved you both with all her heart. Her life revolved around the two of you. Stacie was a wonderful young lady who had more courage and grace than anybody I know. She always had a smile – no matter how bad things were. I admired her and loved her for so many reasons. She was a wonderful friend. I will always remember her and love her. People are never gone as long as you have memories of them. I will forever treasure my memories of Stacie. I love you both – and I hope you know that I am here if you need anything at all. You were her home family, she was part of my work family. Rest in peace my friend, you will forever be in my heart.
I will miss her laugh, her friendship, and that feisty fighting spirit. Stacie, I will love and keep you in my heart forever. My love and prayers to you Ernie and Miss Jazzmine.
