Stephanie’s favorite color was purple and she knew how to rock it with that awesome purple hair. She loved to go karaoking, a time to sing have fun. Many times with her brother. What a beautiful voice she had, so angelic. She was a very loving, caring and giving person. Her loving soul will be missed. She is now singing with the angels in Heaven.
