Stephen Griffin Propst

Condolences on what sounds like an extraordinary life! All the way from Sydney, Australia.

The thing I looked for first in my bp magazine was the monthly article written by Stephen Propst. Those articles helped me immensely as I was diagnosed with bipolar II. Thank you Stephen. Heaven is richer with your soul there but earth misses you.

To Steve's family, I want you to know that he was one of the most positive forces for good in my life. He had a deep impact on my life, and hundreds, if not thousands, of other people can say the same thing. Initially I was shocked to learn of his passing in June, but I truly believe that he is in his heavenly home, which makes me happy and does bring peace. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Reading Stephen with his mastery of words and practical insights was my greatest joy in opening bp magazine every issue. I also appreciate his blogs. Every time I read Stephen it helped me. His faith and his sincerity shone through Stephen's articles; and along with his humor, his delight in alliteration, and his well-formed columns, it was easy to see his compassion for others and desire to help as he was able. Stephen was already missed as a columnist, and now he will be missed even...

I had the pleasure of meeting Stephen several times over the years via my dear friends, Jennifer Smith and her sister Sharon. Truly a shining and uplifting gifted soul!

Stephen, you were and are a genius at providing a structure, drive, and momentum to support meetings. You are going to live on through the thousands of lives you impacted. Thank you for being YOU. Thank you for being there for me and the group countless times. May you rest in joyous, laugh filled peace, brother.

Stephen will get Heaven organized in no time. Love you and we are going to miss you buddy.

I´m at a loss for all the words needed to describe Steve. His infectious positivity and mastery of human behavior will have a lasting effect on all who had the enormous pleasure of knowing him. His courage and honesty certainly made many lives more bearable and still others worth living. Steve was larger than life in the most kind and wonderful way. We are all better for his work and his love in this world.

Steve, I miss you my friend! I was blessed by your friendship and your laughter.
