I went to Laurier University with Stephanie, I have many happy memories of Stephanie and I studying French together. We met-up again when we both lived in Ottawa. I am so sad to hear about her unexpected passing. Sending my deepest thoughts and sympathies to Stephanie's husband and family.

I worked with Stephanie for a short period of time at Sun Life. I'm shocked and deeply saddened to hear of her passing. She had an infectious smile and adventurous spirit. My heart goes out to her family and friends.

I worked with Stephanie at Manulife. She was one of the first people to welcome me to the organization, and she always had a smile and a story to share -- that almost always ended up with us laughing... I am so sorry for the unfathomable loss her family and friends have experienced. I hope the happy memories help everyone through this sad time. Thinking of and sending strength and love to you all.

Stephanie was wonderful to work with: always professional, with a "let's get it done" attitude. She set a great example with strong leadership, rewarded hard work, and made sure everyone on the project received recognition. Her smile would light up the gym on her way to teach her spin class at GoodLife Fitness. Please accept my condolences and know that I'll never forget Stephanie.
