I can remember Stephanie like it was yesterday, such fond memories I have of Steph will live with me forever. My heartfelt condolences to the Huff family and all the people she touched.

  Do not stand on my grave and weep 
I am not there I do not sleep. 
I am a thousand winds that blow
I am the diamond glints in the snow
I am the sunlight on ripened grain
I am a gentle Autumns rain
When you awaken in the morning hush 
I am the swift uplifting rush
I am the birds in circled flight 
I am the soft stars that shine at night
So do not stand on my grave and cry
I am not there.... I did not die


Rest in Peace Stephanie, we'll all catch up later

My Deepest Condolences go out to the Huff Family. I am so saddened at the loss of my dear friend and school mate Stephanie. I have been recounting in my mind the many adventures and comraderie that we shared. She was a special friend who introduced me to her wonderful family.
I always appreciated the hospitality shown to me at the Huff household and have fond memories of times shared there.
May Stephanie Rest in Peace as she is swaddled in the arms of the Lord.
