Stephanie was a good friend that I’ve known since high school. We even went to Harding together. She was a wonderful person. Always smiling and was truly very genuine. My heart breaks for all of you. Please know that you will all be in my prayers.

Sweet Stephanie I still can’t believe your gone I picture you in Heaven meeting everyone and asking questions about their Journey I’m sure your in the Heavenly choir and I’m quite sure it’s a swing choir Your impact as a true Christian is unquestionable and it might be my new saying - “ what would Stephanie do” Thanks for checking in here in Colorado And we will pray for your sons and Steve as they continue on with out you here But it’s so comforting to know Where you are - wish I was a fly in the wall in Heaven to watch you encounter all the un imaginable that’s there But I’m guessing there are no flys in Heaven Dear Steve All I know to say is every time I think about you and sons I pray That’s all there is to do — no words - no action will help - but the comfort of the Lord I pray comes upon you and the peace that passes understanding is given by his Holy Spirit Truly you and Stephanie as a team have impacted soooooo many and I know her chair is empty but I Know her heart will NEVER BE forgotten Love you guys ♥️✔️ Michele Dodson

I can't remember a time where Steve and Stephanie were not part of the Tucker Family celebrations we were having. Here bright smile and infecttious laugh will be greatly missed. Her openness to talk about her christian faith and how grateful she was to be child of God should be an example for everyone to open their hearts for him. I will continually pray for Steve and the boys. She will be so missed.

I was honored to meet Stephanie in the Singles Group at Saturn Road. We lived in the same apartment complex for many years. When she broke her wrist, I even washed her hair for her, until she figured out how to do it herself. The girls from the Singles Group vacationed at South Padre Island a few years in a row.. She accompanied me home to Snyder, Texas one 4th of July. I will miss her sweet smile, that rarely left her face. What a stalwart Christian example. We will catch up in heave, my dear friend.

God has welcomed Stephanie into his arms, where she is now happy and whole. For those of us who have yet to follow, especially her family, feeling dark emptiness and intense pain from this loss that hurts so deeply, may God grant us his hand of comfort and healing. Stephanie was a true light in the world; her loss is like colors have gone missing from the rainbow. We do not understand why she was taken from us. Yet even as we struggle and grieve and miss her, we also rejoice that we were blessed so abundantly by her in the time she was shared with us - a treasure that made us rich and a true gift that we will ever cherish.

I just want to thank God he put this kind soul in my life path. She was the definition of kindness. She will surely be miss by so many. I’m praying for anyone that is missing her specially her family. I will miss her warm hugs and sweet smile. Stephanie was a role model of how to love our savior. I have never met nobody with a pure heart like hers. God has reclaimed one of his faithful servants. I know we will meet again.

I am still in shock and heartbroken that Stephanie is no longer with us! I rejoice that she has gone on to her heavenly reward, but those of us left are mourning her loss. Stephanie had such a positive disposition and genuinely cared about people. She was a wonderful example of a Christian servant, who always had a willingness to help others with a smile on her face! It is hard to think about our church family without her in it! Steve, my thoughts and prayers are with you and the boys during this difficult time. I pray that God will wrap you up in His arms and give you peace and comfort and strength to carry on!

I loved my mom very much. We had the best Mom in the world, and I will be missing her terribly. I am very glad she took me as her son from Ukraine to America to be with my brother and to be a family together.  And I'm very thankful that Mom and Dad and my uncle Darren and aunt Kelly helped me to get to America. I will also mention Gary and Nadya who helped me in my life. I say again – I loved my mom a lot and she was my best-loved person in the world. My mom taught me to love God, and I believe we will meet in heaven with her. It's difficult and very sad that my dad and I lost this beautiful life we had with my mom. It is very hard on my dad and everyone in our family. We did lots of things together with my mom. We traveled a lot together. We did many great things together. I will always remember my happy days with my mom. I am very sad that my grandma Bobbie lost her wonderful daughter. I will always remember my mom, and I will try to live my life the way she taught me. My mom would be glad to see that at this difficult time in these sad days our family and our relatives and friends all stand together and are going strong. Our family continues to live together, cherishing the memories of my mom. Vadym Codara

I’ve known Stephanie since her teaching days at Dallas Christian, but really enjoyed several days we spent together at Pepperdine lectures one year when we just happened to see each other! She was a bright shining light (like everyone has said! Our hearts go out to Steve, her two beautiful sons, and her Mom and family! May all the wonderful memories with her carry you through this sad and difficult time!
