Stephanie Marie Beatty

One month without you, muddling through this hell on earth. The void is all-consuming. I love you, I miss you.

To my love, my best friend, and my sister. You took me in when I had no where to go. You gave me shelter, protection, and love when I was at my lowest. Your family took me in as one of your own and gave me the love I was so much wanting and needed. You made me get out of bed on my lowest days and made me get out and make friends. You forced me out of my shadow and into the light. I´m gonna always love and remember you.

My beautiful baby sister,

Words cannot express my sorrow. A part of me died the moment your life was taken. I will never be the same without you. You were a ray of sunshine; you were everything that is good in this world and now you are gone. I know you´ve made it to a better place, shrouded in every shade of pink and all the butterflies your heart could desire, but I still close my eyes and pray that you´ll come back. I will spend the rest of my life in this perpetual hell that is a world without you. I love you forever and always. Until we meet again, my cutie.

I'm so sorry to hear of this tragic news. My heart goes out to all her family and friends.. RIP Stephanie

Since Freshman year, I first saw Stephanie when she and her friend came over to try to talk to me. I didn´t have no idea what was her friend talking about, I was very shy and confused kid but when I confusedly looked at her then she started smiling at me and I smiled back. On sophomore year, I seen her around school and didn´t even say hi to each other and looked down at same time which was funny. At firstI decided to text her and become friends so we were texting each other 24/7 and she was the first person that makes me feel comfortable with her and smile. Every time I seen Stephanie and said hi as she wanted me to then asked if how she was doing. Stephanie was full of joy and laughs when I seen her but she really wanted me to hang out and we didn´t have a chance to hang out together. To Steph, I´m sorry for things happened to you and it broke my heart that you´re not here on the earth anymore but I never forget you, your smile and everything about you.

I remember seeing you for the first time. We met on our first day of work. I saw you leaving as I went in, and from the first day we worked together up until you left this earth, you never failed to make the environment around you a good one and positive. You´ll always be loved, always be missed. You deserved the world, all beautiful souls do.

My son had his 4th birthday party at an art house, none of his friends showed up. He was sad at first until he seen Stephanie walk thru the door and she did the painting with him. I originally met Stephanie when I worked at Juniors. She is one of the best humans I´ve ever met . She will be so missed!!

My boys loved Stephanie so much. She loved to play with them & go to craft events & get ice cream! The last time we hung out with her I want to say was 2020 . Yadi was only 5 & he still asks about her! :(

I became friends with Stephanie´s oldest sister, Nathali, when we were 14 and Stephanie was 6.
One of the very first things I learned about Nathali was how much and how fiercely she loved her family, especially her two sisters.
I met Stephanie as a goofy little girl, who was always whispering but when she was in her element, her personality was loud, unique, and hard not to smile at.
There is not a single interaction I had with Stephanie where I did not walk away laughing or smiling at something she said or did.
Being best friends with Nathali, I learned that no matter what plans we had, we had to factor in time to drive Stephanie to/from a friends house, or to drop her off "two cheeseburgers and a cookie" from mcdonald´s. There was no saying no to Stephanie.
I recently saw Stephanie for the first time in years and had my first "i feel old" moment, she looked different was now taller than I, and old enough to drive herself places.
What I learned from the years I Stephanie was that you really don´t become poor in giving to others. I am not sure there was a happier, more carefree, or kinder soul than that which Stephanie embodied.
The legacy she leaves behind is one full of love.

I met Stephanie Sophomore year of high school. I was new to that school and she came to me with open arms. I thought wow she´s so pretty & kind. I kept to myself in high school and only had a few people I talked to. Shortly after I met her she invited me to go to homecoming with her. I was happy to go. High school was my low years and I didn´t feel my best. Stephanie always had great energy and made everyone feel included. I remember her always trying to hype me up & trying to help build my confidence. What I admired about Stephanie was that she was unique. She rocked every look & didn´t care what anyone thought of her. I always loved her for that. Stephanie had a big heart and I hope she receives all the love being sent to her. She always showed love. You will never be forgotten and will always be in our hearts. I love you!

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always I meet Stephanie through my daughter Natavya Stephanie was love peace joy I'll never forget when I got sick and I couldn't walk or talk she would check on me she would see my boys (natavya) brothers outside Xavier and Marquis she would play with them give them money to buy pizza give them snacks they loved her because she loved them my nine year old Emmanuel swore Stephanie was his wife despite him being nine she made a huge impacted on them and we are so grateful she was apart of our life's

I miss sing Disney songs in my room and laughing and dancing together like it just our own world

Love you forever our Angel Forever in our hearts and souls ❤❤

Stephanie had always knew what to say and how to say things she never said anything wrong when asking for advice. She had love like no other and gave nothing but love. She was beautiful the most beautiful person I have ever seen. She stood out in any room with her smile and the unique laugh she had. A laugh that made others laugh because of how ridiculous her laugh was. I will never get the friendship or bond that me and Stephanie had back. She was her own person and the one thing people struggle with is not being themselves and Steph was always herself it may not make sense but she wasn´t embarrassed of who she was and never tried to be anybody else. She was her. I can´t describe a favorite time with Stephanie but I can say that any time spent with Stephanie was a great time. Long nights and days that always had a remarkable memory. Stephanie and me in any serious situation made the situation the funniest because we could never take things serious together. We were 7 years old in 19 and 21 year old bodies. I love you Stephanie and I know you are watching over all of us. If theres boogers in my walls or pillow I will know its you.

Every memory i spent with Stephanie is my favorite. Working at ballestrinis with steph was a blessing in disguise. I would wait for steph to come in everyday at 930 because she would come into work in the cutest outfits with the cutest accessories and the best energy. I´d wait for her to greet me my screaming good morning sunshine!!! She made work feel like a second home, I always enjoyed our naptime deep talks with kiana as we´d share snacks and occasionally meals steph would bring from home to share with the staff and occasionally the kids too stephie loved to share and keep everyone´s belly´s full getting closer with Stephanie outside of work has left me with endless memories, stephie never failed to make me laugh especially when she laughed so hard she´d wheeze Stephanie had the biggest heart and I have never met anyone like Stephie the kind of love and energy she gave is unforgettable she will be forever in my heart.

My first memory is Hanging out with her, Ari f , and Kiana.. many fun nights. But my favorite is last Christmas she helped me give my family one of the best Christmas´s. She was like a older sister I never had I love you Steph.- Ari Marie

I was one of the kids at her daycare, I only found out she had passed yesterday. I am very sad because we had been waiting for her to visit for a while. I´m so sorry for everyone´s loss. She was an amazing person and teacher and she was literally everyone´s favorite teacher! We loved that she would let us do whatever we wanted. I´m very sorry, 3 children from the daycare
