Stephanie Wills - Online Memorial Website

Thinking of you sweetheart on this July 4th, 2016!  Missing you and the fun celebrations we would have in our court.  Things have changed alot since those days!  I'm sure you're watching with so much pride how well your boys are doing!  Derek a Marine and your Cameron all ready to go into the Air Force!   Caleb and Brian are doing well.. Surely you have watched and guided Lisa to help raise your boys and Love them for you.  She is doing both very well!  I hope Jen has found you... she has joined you in Heaven honey... Both my beautiful girls, angels for their children.  

Love you honey...Please know not a day goes by without thoughts of you... Know also that Lisa goes through lengths to keep your memories alive and shows you so much respect.  One of the many things I love about her!  

God bless, Love you always, forever and a day!

We keep finding Jenna asleep in Jane's crib at night.  After we put her to bed she waits until we leave and she climbs into the crib and lays down next ot Jane.  The first time I found her I just had to cry because it reminded me of how you would get out of your crib at night and climb up in bed with me when we were little.  I just can't get mad at her because it reminds me of you.   

dear Aunt Stephanie
i do love you so,
and thought it would be great,
if you were to know,
i may toss and i may turn,
and never get to sleep,
but you should know I'm trying,
trying not to weep,
as i am laying there in bed,
thoughts of you fill my head,
i know i shouldn't cry or fuss,
but it hurts knowing your not with us,
as a teardrop rolls from my eye,
it's just so hard to say good-bye,
i give you all my heart has love,
knowing your watching from above


i wrote this poem and read it at her funeral i was only ten when i wrote it which is a lot coming from the heart. although i didn't see her much i loved her. one of the things that reminds me of Aunt steph, is when my mom and my brother and i went to her house to help her paint baby calebs room. caleb wasn't even born yet and Auntie Steph was only pregnant with him. MY mom and Auntie worked very hard to make Caleb's room special. i remember Ryan(my brother) and i playing street hockey with Cameron and Derek. the picture posted is an angel wearing green. because green is my aunt's favorite color. which i was surprised to hear beacause green is my fave as well i love Aunt Steph and am sad she is gone but i know i have to realize all thinbgs happen for a reason.

I remember Christmas 2007, when you and I put the video together for mom's 75th birthday!  You were so instrumental in surprising mom with a video from her kids.  We had such a great time talking one on one with each of our siblings and their families.  I will never forget Caleb singing "Happy Birthday" to grandma.  The video says it all!  I miss you sis!  I thank God for the time we were together and I pray He will comfort us all the days we are without you! 

I remember all these memories with Stephanie, Jen and so many, many more!   I am posting the picture you were looking for Jennifer.  Stephanie always did what she could to help everyone.  Such a beautiful giving young woman.. I love you Stephanie and miss you terribly!  We all do!

Good morning and Happy Birthday my darling Stephanie,

As I write this message, I am hoping you are holding hands and hearts with your
precious brother David.  You two being together is a source of comfort to my wounded heart and soul.  Your presence is always with me dear Steph and I feel so blessed
and honored to have been your Mom.  I recently had the pleasure of visiting with Derek and Caleb and I am so, so very proud of your boys and I know you would as well.  They are a testament to your sweetness and your love.  So, once again, I am sending you birthday wishes along with hugs and kisses special delivery on Eagle's wings direct to your Heavenly home.

Love forever and always,
MOM

Stephanie,
     My beautiful and precious girl.  Today is the anniversay of the unspeakable.
I cannot believe it has been ten years since I answered the phone to hear Paul
give me the terrible news.  I still hear your voice and see your smile so often
but the pain is still present with me and I guess it will be until I join you.  The Lord's
ways are strange but there must have been a reason why he plucked the most 
beautiful flower of all for His garden.
I miss you my darling .

Forever and Always,

MOM

My beautiful, lovely Stephanie - today you are the Birthday Girl!
The day you were born so etched in my mind.  A perfect and beautiful little baby girl - heaven sent.  Did I ever imagine I would be sending you this birthday greeting to Heaven.  I still remember the Friday phone calls you would make, and what I would
do to hear your sweet voice once again.  Though time, passes, the ache never really goes away.  You know, the what if's, how could this happen and am I just having a nightmare.  And then reality sets in.  I know that the Lord sent you to us for a reason, and wanted you back because you were truly the most beautiful rose he desired for his heavenly garden.  I love you my darling and leave you with my birthday greeting:
Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you.  Happy Birthday dear Stephanie, Happy Birthday to you.  
Forever and Always,
MOM

My sweet,darling Stephanie,
Once again we are reminded of that devestating day when you were taken from us.
Can't believe that nine years have passed since that devestating day, but it is so much engraved in our minds and hearts there is no escape from that horrible reality. So you see, my dear, that you are so much still a part of the family and never a day passes that you are not mentioned and thought of by us.  I love you deeply and  even now  I can hear your voice as it was on Friday's when you would call me. 

Love forever and always,
MOM

Happy Birthday to You,  Happy Birthday to You
Happy Birthday, dear Stephanie,  Happy Birthday to You.
It is hard to believe you would be 42 today.  It is said that "time will ease the ache a
little", but for me that just isn't so.  As time passes, the loneliness and sadness just
intensify.  I miss you so very much.  Your warmth, your smile and loving heart
are constant reminders of the wonderful human being you were.  So today, I just
want to tell you that I was so blessed to have the priviledge of being your Mom and
you are always with me sweetheart.  May you rest in the presence of The Lord.
Happy Birthday, honey.
Love forever and always,
MOM
