I would like to extend Christian sympathy to Stephanie's children and family. One thought about Stephanie that pops into my mind was her favorite color lipstick in junior high, "Pink Poodle". It was sort of a purple/pink color that only looked good on her. But then, most everything looked good on her. I believe our dads knew each other too. My dad was Al Krshul and owned a restaurant in Affton (Al's - now a Pasta House). I remember laughing alot with Stephanie in school. Our lives crossed and we talked back in the 1980's. My ex-husband (John Linn) was in reserves with, I suppose, your dad. Life sends many challenges and many choices; but you never forget, I know I don't, the people God sends you to "grow up" with. Always treasure your childhood friends, they are blessings. From reading the entries in this guest book, it seems as though Steffie never changed and always was a blessing wherever she went. Again, my sympathies. I am blessed to have spent some of my life with her. I liked your mom.
Sincerely,
Sandy (Krshul) & Steve Robine

I want to send my love to Meaghan, and all of Stephanie's family. I will always fondly remember her generosity that I first noticed when she donated much needed choir robes to our high school. What a beautiful person. I wish I could be in St. Louis with you all, but please know you are in my thoughts and prayers. Keep smiling Meaghan!

My sincere and heartfelt sympathy to Stephanie's family. Stephanie was a one of a kind gal. I know she will be greatly missed by all. My life has been linked with Stephanie's from our Ozark days. We shared a room in training where we discovered we lived a few books from each other. After training we ended up living in the same apartment building. She was always living life to the fullest. May her soul rest in peace.
