  1. I am so very sorry for your loss. Stephanie and I were Senior Class Officers together for the Class of ’82 and my 2nd cousin. My Dad and Polly were 1st cousins. There is no wonderful words but I am so very thankful to have known her, have the memory of her bright smile and her laugh as well as her sense-of-humor.

  8. I am so sorry to learn of Stephanie’s passing. We were neighbors for many, many years in Leicester. Stephanie was a sweet and lovely person and we enjoyed many good conversations together. I knew from the way she talked how much she loved Hunter. Stephanie was voted “Most Athletic Girl” during our Senior year at Erwin High. She certainly lived up to that title! The Erwin Class of 1982 has lost a dear classmate.

  9. My heart goes out to you Hunter over the loss of you mother. She was a very special 1st cousin whom I am going to miss talking too. We were each other sounding board during our illnesses. Both Stephanie and Tony stayed with Denise and I at Grandma and Grandpa Briggs house as we were growing up and our parent’s worked. There are to many special memories to share here. Maybe when the time comes I can share them with you. Praying for you.

She was a great person and no matter how bad of a day you was having you would be smiling seconds after seeing her. I will definitely miss seeing her on her visits to us. May God bless your family and be with you during this time.

  27. I had the great opportunity to work with Stephanie in excess of 25 years. We were part of a great team to which we enjoyed many great times at AAA Cooper Transportation. We would show up each day with the same objective in mind, to achieve customer satisfaction. She was honored to have her support cast of some of the best employees one could have. Those folks and Stephanie made everyday a great day. I and they will miss the “spark and highlight” of our days. Thanks for all the great times, rest in peace my little sister.

  32. I thought the world of Stephanie, and always enjoyed her visits to Electrolux as the AAA Cooper sales rep. She would sit in the office with me sometimes for near an hour, of which equal time was spent discussing work stuff, and talking bout our children. I also got to cherish those same type moments in the grocery store as we lived near to one another, and would bump into each other. Again usually just standing, and talking about our children. She was definitly a sweet, genuine soul, and I’m so glad to have known her.

  33. I am just now seeing this, almost 2 years later. I tried to call and check in on my sweet, wonderful friend, but had not heard from her in so long that I was worried something had happened. I hate that I missed telling her goodbye and sending condolences to her family. Stephanie was a radiant light of JOY! She was a smart, beautiful, amazing soul and is irreplaceable. I love her and will miss her for eternity. I was blessed to have met her and her gracious, beautiful spirit.
