I remember Stephanie coming up to me while my wife and I were out to eat at a restaurant in Craig, CO. She greeted me so warmly. She and Jim became our friends again. She taught piano to both of our boys. While I was recovering from my chemo I saw a picture of someone who reminded me of her. I called her and she shared that she was a multiple time cancer surviver, and that she was fighting it once again. It was only a short time later that we went to her funeral. I loved her.
