Stephanie, I am very happy I knew you through our junior and high school years. I remember when I first met you in 7th grade when we were science lab partners. Who knew you would accomplish so much so quickly in your life! I think about you and know you are enjoying the rest of life in a happier and more beautiful place.
Love,
Carol

We thank you for blessing us with her presence. Your love and grace is ever lasting and so shall be the fond thoughts, the love and the memories of your beloved daughter. In Jesus name, A Men.

Chris and and Jimmy,
having our kids grow up and play ball together here in town (sometimes winning and sometimes loosing, but usually with you and your family's help winning more than loosing) we know all our kids had a lot of fun and you could tell Stephanie loved it too. We can't pretend to imagine your pain in loosing your daughter, and we've been crying all week since we heard. Your committment to the children to all of our kids here in Brookfield and the the times Stephanie was there helping them will never be forgotten. She will always be in our prayers.

2LT Hurley was a great Officer and wonderful person. I had the pleasure of working with her and getting to know her. My family will always remember her for one reason. While on a TDY mission my 8 month old daughter started to suck her thumb for the first time while at a unit dinner, and Stephanie who was sitting with us shared a story about herself and her own thumbs. I will always think fondly about Stephanie every time I see my daughter hook her finger over her nose as she goes to town on that thumb.
All my prayers to the family and friends of Stephanie from Billy, Gabrielle and myself.

I met LT Hurley during our military training to Italy. As an officer and as an individual she was truly genuine and caring towards myself and her soldiers. I remember how extraordinarily made sure we where taking care of, before, during and after Italy.
Please, accept my sympathy as I have no words to express my condolences for the loss of such a great friend, sister and daughter. May God comfort the Hurley Family during this difficult time.

Please accept my deepest sympathy in your time of grief. I had the distinct pleasure of working with Stephanie for the 7 months preceding her untimely passing. She was an amazing young officer and did so much good while a part of our 49th Finance Battalion. You raised one of the absolute best people that I have known in my life. I feel fortunate for having known and worked with her. My family and I have you in our thoughts and prayers.

Hurley family,
First I want to extend my thoughts and prayers with you in your time of need. I also wanted to tell you how well you did raising such a great person. I was one of her soldiers she took to Italy and I've been in the unit many years and went on many of those trips and I have to say she made it fun and relaxing. Unlike others, she stood up for us when needed and hung out with us on our off time. And I also had the opportunity to work with her in Recruiting and Retention and she was a great help. She was taking on a job of a higher ranking officer with no problems or complaints. She will truly be missed with her finance soldiers and of the Recruiting team.
God bless,
Nicole Martin
