Stephanie Dawnelle Anderson, age 48, passed away peacefully in her home on Thursday, October 3, 2024, in Muldrow, Oklahoma. Born June 28, 1976, in Fort Smith, Arkansas, she was a beloved daughter of Carl Junior Kidd and Shirley Rose (Sessums) Kidd. Stephanie was a master of all things art, and she loved crafting in her free time. She was like tinker bell, always creating something beautiful from the materials around her. Stephanie could often be found going camping, or cooking delicious meals for her friends and family. She will be remembered as a woman of faith, as well as a loving mother and grandmother, who cherished spending time with her loved ones.
Stephanie is survived by her parents, Carl and Shirley Kidd; her partner, Arotonka James; her three children, Harlie Schraps; Hannah Wells; and Haylie Anderson, all of Muldrow, Oklahoma; five grandchildren, Ruth, David, Annalese, Aurora, and Olivia; one sister, Sonya Pulliam; niece, Shelbee; and nephews, Zack, Tristan, and John.
She is preceded in death by her maternal grandparents, Rachel and Alvie Sessums; paternal grandparents, David and Ancle Kidd; and mother in law and father in law, David and Shirley Anderson. Cremation is under the thoughtful direction of Lewis Funeral Chapel.
