To the Family of Stephani:
Stephani and I grew up on the same block in Shorey on N.W. Polk St. in the middle 50's and 60's, I was a couple of years older, but we spent a lot of time together. Since she was an only child and I was one of four children I loved going to Ham and Betty's pink house, it was a little quieter and Betty made the best Oatmeal cookies ever. I still have that recipe that she was so kind to share. We would all go fishing once in a while up near Wamego as I recall and it was the best time. After Stephani and I were both grown and she & I both had children, she babysat for my son Rob Neiswender for a year or so at her little house on 10th street. I am so sorry for your loss, she will be greatly missed.
