LAURINBURG —Our Beautiful, Intelligent, Wonderful, daughter, Stephanie Marie Leach, 32, born August 24, 1989, at Flower Hospital in Sylvania, Ohio died unexpectedly in her sleep at her friend's home on Wednesday, July 6, 2022.
Stephanie lived the first 21 years of her life in Monclova/Whitehouse/Swanton NW Ohio area, where she grew up with many cousins and friends. She attended Monclova Elementary School and Anthony Wayne High School and studied Nursing at Pena County Vocation School at Perrysburg Ohio before relocating to North Carolina in 2010.

I remember working with Steph, and visiting her at her home with her wonderful mother. I remember fondly of the time she watched my son who passed shortly after she did. I will love and miss her forever. If y´all need anything you know how to reach me. May she rest in heavenly peace

Our hearts go out to Stephanie´s family. It was wonderful to watch her and Ryan grow up in Toledo and visit us on the farm. I´m so glad I got to see her at the Family Reunion. My heart aches. She will be missed.

Stephanie was most definitely one of a kind. When I moved to North Carolina I had the pleasure of working with her at Domino's. She always always made me laugh! She cheered me up all the time! She even continued to keep in touch with me and support my retail business after moving back to Alabama! She was so very precious. My heart goes out to any and everyone who knew her especially the ones most close to her! Praying!
