Stephen David Bond

Stephen was my best friend and I love and miss him so much I can't explain he was the best person to know. His spirit was alive and vibrant 24/7. I miss him soooo much and can't wait to see him again one day.

I have just learned of Stephen’s passing, I am both saddened and excited for him. Please bare with me while I explain. I first met Stephen when he was in the middle of his Angst years. I was helping a youth minister at St. Pauls by being an adult chaperone on a confirmation retreat for the ninth graders. Stephen had been forbidden to attend that trip because he did not make all the required meeting or get his paperwork in on time. So it was to behe could not go and that was the way it was...

Although I did not know your son, I want to thank you for your brave and honest words regarding his death. So many people do not want others to know when their loved one has died from a drug overdose. I truly believe this will help others. God bless you.

Heartfelt condolences to Stephen's friends and family. I met Stephen only once, when he was a young boy, visiting his grandparents in Indiana with his parents and siblings, but knew his uncle Nathan and, especially, his mom, Adele, when they were youngsters. They were the children of our neighbors and good friends Clarence and Bertille Hull, and I grieve for the sorrow events of the last couple of weeks has brought.

I'm a stranger both to Stephen and to his family. I noticed his obituary in the PNJ this morning only because of his sadly young age. Taking the opportunity to warn others about the dangers of drug use was both brave and commendable of his family. Losing someone to illness is difficult enough. This has to be worse. I've chosen "friend" as my relationship to Stephen because I hope he can now rest in peace.
