Stephanie was a beach comber and loved her visits with Ryan to Emerald Isle, NC where she took side trips to see the wild horses on Shakleford Island. As a child, she remembered her many visits on Gray's Mountain to her Great Uncle Bud's (Theodore Gray) house to check out his horses.

Stephanie's love of the ocean began with trips to Myrtle Beach in the 80's or 90's. But years later, after the death of her Pap Gray, a trip with her Gram and Aunt Lori to Emerald Isle, NC deepened her love. Emerald Isle, NC became her "Happy Place". Then trips with her husband Ryan, family and close friends were spent with joy and laughter. Shelling on the beach and going to her favorite spot on Shakleford Island where the wild horses roam free.

She deeply loved her Gram and Pap Gray where she resided from the time she was four months old until 1982. She then accompanied her mother to Charlotte, NC and Fort Mills, SC where she lived on the grounds of the PTL Television Network/Heritage USA.
