Stephanie Roethler Obituary
Stephanie grew up and resided in the Fountain area most of her life; graduating from Fountain Fort Carson High School in 2009. She was attending Pikes Peak Community College working towards a degree in psychology.
Her father Charles gave her hand in marriage to Brandon K. Roethler. With love filled hearts and an array of plans, hopes and dreams they started their life together on December 15, 2010. The highlight of their union though, was the shared anticipation and joy prior to, the day of and the years following Brayden James' birth. Stephanie loved being a momma and cuddling with her 'Bubba'.
Stephanie's artistic talents are visible through sketchbooks but especially the pages of the scrapbooks she created of her son Brayden. She enjoyed a variety of music and was especially drawn to songs with lyrics that touched the heart. She was an Oakland Raiders fan and found pleasure in camping and hosting friends.
She leaves behind to cherish her memory, devoted husband, Brandon Roethler; adoring son Brayden; parents, Charles and Rebecca Higgins, Jim and Geri Roethler; brothers Curran Higgins, Connor Higgins, Justin Roethler, and Ryan Roethler; sister Trish Meek; grandparents Renate Jones, Carol Webb and Dale Webb; as well as a nephew and host of uncles, aunts, cousins and friends.
A memorial service will be held on Saturday, February 1, 2014 at 2:00 p.m. at Mountain View Mortuary; 2350 Montebello Square Drive, Colorado Springs

I know there will never be any words that will ease the pain as I too understand what you are going through. I am so very sorry. I loved reading the blogs she had posted and the memories her friends have shared. I wish I would have had a chance to have known such a beautiful daughter. Be kind to yourselves.

Stephanie,
It's heartbreaking that we never took advantage of the opportunity to celebrate you in life. We've lost the chance to truly know a beautiful person. It pains us both knowing what your friends and family are going through now in this difficult time. The heartache Michael and I feel dulls in comparison. Just know our hearts and love go out to you, Brandon, & Braydon. Gone too soon, but never forgotten.
January 30, 2014
My heart goes out to all of the family during this very difficult time. Charles, call me if you ever need to talk.

Stephanie, you were amazing. You were beautiful and so sweet. You made a huge impact on my life. You were my big sister. You and Kendra taught me the ways of the world. You were the first person to ever teach me how to do my make up or to pluck my eyebrows. You were always there when I needed you. You inspired me to be better in everything I did. I can't believe you're gone. I love you so much. You were such an amazing mother, wife and big sister. I hope now you can rest in peace. I'm so sorry to your family. You will be missed greatly! I love you Steph!!! Rest In Peace, I know your mom welcomed you to heaven with open arms. I know we will see your beautiful self again one day. I miss you every day and I love you. I'm glad that you were apart of my life. Rest In Peace.
