I know you don't know me, but I went to school with Stacey a couple years at West Davidson. She was such a sweet person and I have often thought about her over the years. May God bless you and your family during this difficult time.

I cannot tell you how much Stacey has meant to me and to my family. She left an imprint on each person she met. My fondest memories of her are picking about who was better Duke or Carolina. I still remember the last time I saw her. She said I love you Miss Joanna and I told her Love you too Stacey and gave her a hug. She will live on in our hearts as we carry her with us everywhere we go.

To Stacey's family, I wanted to say what a sweet service you had for Stacey. It was truly a celebration of her life and her home going. I don't know how several of you had the strength to sing for Stacey but it was beautiful and such a part of what Stacey was.Stacey was just so pretty and I loved the special touches you did. Our prayers are still with your family and will continue to lift you up. Thank-you for letting us all share with you Stacey's life. Stacey was such a light to the world....
