I'm so happy that I knew her and she was a gift to the prayer movement, to many people, and to me.
I wish I had really great words to say something profound - but I don't. I guess I just think that if she were here I would give her a hug and tell her how much I love her.
Today images of her ran through my mind and all these funny memories of her. I remember this one time a bunch of us went to Cracker Barell Stephanie was in a particularily funny mood. As a result she kept pestering our poor waitress. She wouldn't let the waitress walk by without needing something from her, a slight refill on orange juice or maybe a bit of cheese with her eggs. The waitress looked like she was going to reach over the table and smack Steph but Steph just laughed kept asking her for more of whatever.
I remember another time being in the prayer room (in Springfield) all alone one day. I was sorta down for one reason or another, and I hadnt gone out of the prayer room for several hours. It was just about time to do a set - with no one in the room other than myself - I was particulary lonely and wishing someone would walk through the door. And in came Stephanie. That night we just talked and talked about God and what we were learning and we prayed with one another. Stephanie was never big into hugs but I remember that night she gave me a big one.
I miss her.
