My deepest Condolences to the family. Heaven has gained another Angel. Stephen was a great friend and neighbor. Even though I grew up mostly with Stephen’s sisters, Stephen was still a great friend and hung out with 2 of my younger brothers. R.I.P. Stephen, you are now without pain and in great hands of God.
Sincerely,
Beverly Kauffman Cunningham
