Stephanie, I am so thankful for your gift of our friendship. I will always remember the times that we met for lunch, after church, and affirmed each other in our ministries of teaching, writing and serving at Trinity United Church of Christ, in Chicago. You are such a warm, affirming and supportive Spirit. In your memory, I hope to continue your ministry by continuing to spread the word about your book, "Women's Liberation, Jesus Style". In my mind and heart's eye, I am reaching up right now to give you one more Trinity Hug. Be sure to spread your warmth all over Heaven, as you now join the ancestors.

Stephanie, thank you for your gift of our friendship. I will always remember then times, when I was in Chicago, that we met for lunch. In those spaces, you always encouraged me, and I encouraged you, in our ministries of writing and teaching, serving at Trinity United Church of Christ and teaching at Chicago State University. In my mind, at this moment, I am reaching up to heaven and giving you one more Trinity Hug. In memory of you I plan to teach a course based on your book, "Women's Liberation, Jesus Style". I am so thankful that it is still circulating and still blessing people's lives. So long, for now, my dear friend. I will meet you again, on the other side. Keep being your sweet self as you take your place among the ancestors!
