Where do I start? We met through a mutual friend Christa, in Grady's NICU. Each week when you came to volunteer no matter what Nurse you were helping, we always managed to laugh and talk until it was time for you to go. You had such a sweet and caring spirit. I admired your confidence and your ability to be bold and take risks that benefited your life. I loved how you protected your family especially your mom and Copper!! Rest well my friend until we meet again.

Stephanie, my friend, for as long as I can remember. Growing up together was something I will always treasure. Even as an an adult you remained the voice of reason and fun. I miss you dearly and my eyes are watered only because I will miss you being in this world all the days of my life. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

Stephanie was truly a gem! I had the pleasure of meeting her at World Gym and hang out with her a few times. I loved her positive energy and smile! It was always a joy for me to see her light up as she talked about her book Kayla The Great. It meant so much to her! A friend told me her daughter just asked her to read the book to her the other day. She will continue to spread love and now be a guardian angel for little girls. My deepest condolences to her mother, father and family!

I am so grateful to have known Stephanie, working with her at Porsche. During the year she worked with us she made such an impact, spreading joy and positivity to all. As fellow writers, I will forever cherish our many lunches discussing the sheer love of our craft. I was in awe of Stephanie's giving spirit, sharing Kayla the Great with little children in schools and everywhere she went. She gushed over her time cuddling sweet newborns in the hospital. To her Mom and family, she loved you so much. You should be so proud of your beautiful daughter, sister, aunt, niece -- Stephanie. She was a delight and I am honored to have known her. May God grant you peace during this difficult time.

Our hearts are with the family and many friends of Stephanie Davis. May God continue to watch over all of you and provide you with comfort.
I had the pleasure of reconnecting with Stephanie here at DAL. Love for live music, arts and entertainment; who we'd recently seen in concert and who we'd like to see next were always the subject of our conversations. I will miss her energy and spirit.
Rest now Sister.

Sending love and light to the family. I met Stephanie a few years ago while she was at Cox. One thing that was abundantly clear was her deep love of her family. She was so proud of her nieces and nephews. Praying that God will grant you a peace that passes all understanding during this time. So, so sorry for your loss. Thankful that her legacy lives on in Kayla the Great and her friends and family who share beautiful memories.

Stephanie was an amazing woman, she gave of herself by leading by example. I enjoyed watching her love people and enjoy her life unapologetically. We will forever honor you through donating to one of your favorite hobbies, cuddling babies at the Grady NICU on Sunday afternoons. You were such an intricate part of my life as you mentored Milan and adopted her as a niece/mentee. I will treasure the amazing times we spent together at Cox Communications, Like The River The Salon and countless eateries in Atlanta. The Like The River Family will be planning a rooftop dedication in your memory as we wear your favorite lipstick MAC Ruby Woo, eating cupcakes and toasting to one of our favorite girls (Kayla the Great and Kopper's Mom). Your legacy will live on, I have gained another guardian-angel!

To her mother, father and the family she held so dear: Stephanie was a loving and loyal Virgo who supported women and had the courage and tenacity to self-publish. My daughter enjoyed meeting her at the Decatur Book Festival and is the proud owner of two Kayla books. Stephanie and I worked together at Cox and stayed in touch after. Sending you every bit of love and strength during this unimaginable time.
