Stephanie Alexandra Hansen

Stephanie Alexandra Hansen (Barr), age 46, of Herriman, Utah, passed away on July 20, 2025, after a long and courageous struggle with mental health challenges.

Stephanie was born on September 21, 1978, in Troyes, France to Arlette and the late John Barr. One of seven children, she grew up surrounded by a large and loving family. Stephanie went on to build a life deeply rooted in love, devotion, and care for others.

She married Brian Hansen on June 7, 1997, and together they shared 28 years of marriage. Stephanie was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother. She is survived by her husband, Brian; their three children, Joshua, Alexander, and Lillian; and four grandchildren, Lucas, Lana, Oliver, and Penelope. She is also mourned by her mother, Arlette, and siblings Corinne, Jean-Marc, Jacqui, Christopher, Julie, and Aimee.

Professionally, Stephanie worked as a software Quality Assurance engineer and was known for her intelligence, diligence, and meticulous attention to detail in everything she did. Outside of work, she was the heart of every gathering. Whether it was through her famous cooking, her love of entertaining, or her enthusiasm for holidays and family trips-especially to Disneyland-Stephanie's warmth and joy were felt by everyone around her.

Stephanie brought light into the lives of so many. While her vibrant spirit often illuminated any room she entered, she also faced private battles with mental health that ultimately took her from us far too soon. Her life serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of compassion, support, and the need to break the stigma surrounding mental health.

Stephanie's legacy of love, resilience, and unwavering support for her family will live on in the hearts of all who knew her, now and for many years to come.
