Yesterday, our family was faced with an unimaginable loss. My precious sister, Stephanie, a sweet, loving, and gentle soul was called home far too soon. She had been quietly battling the weight of mental health challenges for several years. Despite our constant prayers, support, and deep love for her, she often turned away the help we tried to give. Stephanie recently endured the heartbreaking loss of three beloved family members, each one leaving a deep void in her spirit and adding to the heaviness she carried. She often said how tired she was mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Though we held on to hope, God, in His mercy, saw her pain and gave her peace.

While our hearts are broken and our questions remain, we are leaning on our faith and trusting that she is now resting in the arms of the Lord, where there is no more sorrow, no more suffering, and no more pain. We are now facing the unexpected financial burden of laying Stephanie to rest with love, dignity, and grace. If you feel led to give or to share this, we thank you from the depths of our hearts. Your support will help us celebrate her life and lift her spirit into the light.

“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” – Psalm 14
