Dear John, Johnny, Brian, Beth & family,
I didn't know until today that Stephanie
had passed.
She was a tremendous person and your lost is tremendous. Stephanie was a bright light that will be in your hearts forever.
Knowing how much Stephanie loved all of you I feel that she would not let death stand in her way of taking care of her family. I pray that she will bestow on you the same faith & strength that got her through difficult times.
I will never forget the Love, friendship, tears and laughs we shared.
With Love and Our Deepest Sympathy,
Carol, Frank, Frankie, Christina & Jessica

Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.
Uncle Johnny, Johnny, Brian, and Beth,
My heart aches for you during this sad time. Aunt Stephanie loved you all so much...you were her world! She was so very proud of each and every one of you.
She is still with us, looking down and smiling. Smiling at the love that surrounds us all through this difficult time. Her spirit will live on through her beautiful children and her precious grandson Dominick.
When all is quiet, I can still hear her. I hear her laugh and her sweet voice. I love you Aunt Steph!
I love you all so much!
Love,
Tracy

Dear Mr. Tironi, Beth, John and Brian,
I am so sorry for your loss. Mrs. Tironi, as I knew her, was always very supportive of me and I have the fondest memories of coming over to the house on Elcock, the pool, Fritz the dog, and the athletic shrine in the basement. All of you are in our thoughts and prayers.
With love always,

My Darling Stellie was definitely "one of a kind." She was beautiful, strong, intelligent, determined, and loving.
Stellie and I have been best friends for almost 50 years, plus partners in crime as well, and I love her with all my heart and soul.
With my Stellie's passing, I have lost a big part of my past, present, and future,and the sorrow that has embraced my soul is overwhelming.
Stellie's entire family and myself have been blessed to have had such an angel in our lives for as long as we did, but unfortunately not really long enough.
Stellie will be truly missed by everyone's life she has touched... I am sure of this because she was so very exceptional as a person, friend, Mom, grandmother, and wife.
Goodbye to my most beautiful angel....I will love you forever and ever!

Stephanie embraced life in the same way she left it; with a fierce determination. As a high school friend what I remember most about Steph is her love for John Tironi. She knew at an early stage in their relationship that she wanted to marry him. She held on to that love and desire without reservation. She could not be distracted or persuaded otherwise. There were times that I thought she was naive to think someone so young could make such a decision.
She proved me so wrong. John & Steph did marry and together they continued with that same love and determination to create a beautiful family. She leaves a behind an endearing legacy that transcends time. She will live on in the hearts of those who love her and we look forward to seeing her again in heaven where I'm so sure she will take on the role of guardian angel to her sweet family.
She is friend I will never forget and one who has taught me so much just by observing her life.
Sending all my love and prayers,
Cecelia Mancino Levings
