I'm taking this as a sign that you are still with me some way. I was just talking about you to someone about how much fun we use to have. And how good nature you are. You're still my idol and friend. I miss you.

I miss my best friend. I miss you most when I´m in my car because several songs will play and revive memories of the many times we spent together. But guess what Steph! I don´t cry anymore; I laugh! We were always in stitches about something. My sister, you are always with me.

Stephanie was my sister and my friend. I am so glad that we talked when I was last in town. Typical of Stephanie, she was calling to check in on me and Linn. One of the few words that my mother has spoken lately is "memories". I thank God for the memories that I have of you.

Dear auntie....how could I not sign your guestbook. We truly truly had some good times. Words will never describe how much I will miss you. You were my spunky aunt who always kept it real with me and I will always be grateful for that. I could type a book but I'm not. Just know that you will always be on my mind. Give grandma and granddaddy a big hug for me. Love you then, now, and forever.

I couldn't have asked for a better best friend. My peace comes in knowing that you are resting in the arms of our dear Lord. Steph, I love you.

Linda McDonald and Family

January 18, 2013

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

To the family of Stephanie,
I was deeply saddened to hear that Stef had passed. We worked together so long and had some really great laughs together. I have been retired for 4 years now and often though about her and our times with the P.O.. I will truly miss her and she will always be in my thoughts and prayers.
OH Stef....what good times we had girl!!! You were always such a cut up and always kept me laughing as I tried to do with you as well. I will miss you and your warm and beautiful smile.
Rest in peace...you deserve it now!!
Your friend, Debbie Cole :)
