Steph, I don't even know where to start. You are such a huge part of my life. I can't stop thinking about our times together. I will never ever stop thinking and reminiscing of the memories we made together. All of our inside jokes, the ups and downs, and how no matter what, we always stayed friends because we had a bond that not many people share. I hope you're Up There with my dad and get to eat some of his chicken and dumplings ;) I love you so much girl. I took you being here for granted and now I wish I could just have one more moment with you to tell you how much I love you. We will not stop checking up on your mom, we will take good care of her for you. Rest Easy, my friend. You are sorely missed.
