Steffi was a great friend to me. I have so many good memories of her. I am so sorry for your loss.
July 7, 2020 4:14 am
I was some shy kid who was lucky enough to know Steffi, but because of her and a few other people I came out of my shell later on in life and became who I am now. She played a pretty big role in that. I’m very sorry for your loss.
July 7, 2020 1:53 pm
I love hearing that because I know that Steph felt awkward socially at times. But I knew she was a very loyal friend

Thanks, Wendy. She tried her best and I tried my best, too. But the disease had its hooks in her too tightly. She has no more suffering now
July 9, 2020 12:52 pm
Leslie Steff put up a good fight and was lucky to have such a great mom who was in the fight with her. You were always lifting her up and encouraging her to fight a good fight. I can’t imagine the hole in your heart right now, I hope it fills with all the good memories you and her shared throughout her short life. She is at peace and I hope that brings you some and your family some comfort. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family!
July 9, 2020 2:15 pm
Thanks, Rachel. I know we both tried our best but sometimes the disease is just too huge. There’s a song called Dancing in the Sky. That’s what I like to think about now. She’s on both legs dancing

July 11, 2020 10:36 am
Thanks, Debbie. I so appreciate all the love and support I’ve received from my work family. I know she has peace now and no more suffering
July 11, 2020 7:34 am
I am so saddened to hear this. She and I graduated from east together. She was so intelligent, quick witted and just so nice. We ran into one another one night during a call… I didn’t realize she was a paramedic, and myself an EMT. I sure didn’t think that would be the last time I’d see her. I’ll be thinking of you all on this extremely emotional day, and I do apologize for my not coming. I work in an ER and I don’t want to risk getting anyone sick. My god be with you all, and provide you with comfort.
July 11, 2020 10:39 am
Thanks, Kayla. Poor Steff suffered and struggled a lot these last three years. I know she’s at peace and has no suffering now
July 11, 2020 12:06 pm
I’m friends with Jen and her daughters. I’m so sorry for her passing. She sounds like a person who was full of life. Love and Prayers for you Jen and the entire family.
July 11, 2020 8:59 pm
Thank you. She was one of a kind. My sweet angel is at peace.
