Stacey Simpson Duke

My heart has been broken after hearing of Stacey´s passing. She touched so many lives in her short 51 years of life. I know that her spirit will live on through Rob and Charlie! Prayers for FBC today as we celebrate her life.

I was a Twitter friend. We had the South in common. Loved her as a very special person. Remember her love. She shared it wherever she was. LenIta Phillips

Beautiful, inspirational Stacey was there for me during my surgeries, my mom's service, my dad's service and my nephew Joe's service. Her voice, whether singing or preaching, stirred thoughts of hope and peace in my heart. Her leadership along with Paul makes me proud to be a member of the FBC. Sympathy isn't a big enough word to share with you Paul, Rob, Charlie and the dogs.

I was by no means a regular attendee, but I walked into First Baptist Church of Ann Arbor feeling weary and defeated, and her wise words and sincere hug after the service truly brought me comfort. She will be missed

She loved her experience there and felt embraced and valued which is what we all want for our children and Stacey made that...
