Stephanie was truly a wonderful person. We worked together at the YMCA for many years, and she was a preschool teacher to both my sons. Her beautiful smile would light up the room and her laughter was infectious to those around her. I didn’t realize when I spoke with her in December it would be the last time…forever in my memories.

So sorry for your loss Nancy You are in our thoughts and prayers.

So heartbreaking….. prayers and thoughts from the entire Cefalu family to your family. Ours families were so intertwined growing up together as next door neighbors. You will be missed. Rest In Peace Stephanie.

Such a kind, beautiful & loving soul. So many fun memories with her. Prayers and love for the family!

Haven’t seen Steph in a long time but all reading this know, that once your met her you would not soon forget.
Her zest for life, beaming smile and passionate caring demeanor truly made her special.
I don’t know what God’s plans are for her but he certainly took back a gift to us all!

Stef was not only a wonderful co-worker, but a fantastic friend. We had some awesome times with our shenanigans both in Cincinnati and Naples. Heaven gained a lovely .

I will always remember the many times together at Marlins meets and practices when our daughters and sons swam together. Stephanie was always so poitive and happy that one was always uplifted in her presence. Condolences to both Emily and Alex.

I am so sorry to hear of this extremely upsetting loss. This woman was a strong, uplifting example to all she encountered. She made everyone feel like someone. She was an angel on Earth, who God now has looking over her family and the rest of her loved ones.

Stephanie was a wonderful friend. She will be greatly missed.

One of the most kind, caring, loving people I’ve had the pleasure of knowing. The Colerain family will not be the same without her.

Where to start this all seems so unreal!!! I met Stephanie as me being a student at colerain high school. She was a kind, loving, and caring receptionist. Her smile brightened up the whole room. I remember having so much fun being her helper in the office that I would always want to miss my next bell to just stay and help her. She always told me to follow my dreams and I can be whatever I put my mind to. She will be truly and dearly missed!!
Love Mersades

Stephanie was a wonderful person – beautiful inside & out! My heart is so sad to know that she has passed, but I am fortunate to have known her personally. She made me laugh; she made me smile; if you knew her, you knew she cared. RIP dear Stephanie…heaven shines a bit brighter with you there.

Stephanie touched so many lives, she was the funniest, sweetest friend to so many…she will be sorely missed. Sending love and prayers to all of her family♥️

My heart goes out to the family. Stephanie was a sweet person, always went out of her way for the kids at school. My prayers are with you all, she will be deeply missed. God rest your beautiful soul Stephanie.
❤️❤️❤️❤️

I will always remember that bright smile as I got that late pass because we went to breakfast and all strategically came in to get passes so we would not get busted. We thought we were slick and I am 100% sure she knew what we were up to. Love that you got to retire in a beautiful place, my place of birth Naples. May your family be comforted by the lives you touched.

I am so sorry for your loss. Stephanie was always a kind and positive person. I truly enjoyed her beautiful posts on Facebook. I grew up in the neighborhood with the Hicks family, so I’ve known Stephanie for a very long time. Her passing is so heartbreaking. Prayers for comfort and peace to her family and friends.

Emily and Shaun:

Ron, Kevin and I are so sorry to hear the news about your dear mother. Our hearts are with you as you bear the burden of her loss. Love, Celine

To Stephanie’s Family.
As a classmate at St. James and McAuley and a member of the WOMH Kiwanis softball team growing up Stephanie was always a joy to be around. Heaven gained a beautiful angel. She will not be easily forgotten. May you cherish the memories and hold them close to your heart. Wisdom and strength to get you through this difficult time.

I had the great pleasure of working with Stephanie at a retirement community here in Naples. She brought endless smiles and laughter to every activity and event we had. She made this world a better place and will be greatly missed. Rest In Peace Steph❤️

Our deepest sympathy and love from all of our extended families to yours. The Siegels, Brehms, and Corsmeiers.

Stephanie was a bright light in the world. I enjoyed my friendship with her during the many years we worked together at Colerain. She had an infectious smile and a warm heart for all those she encountered. My deepest condolences to the entire family and much love to Alex and Emily.

I will always remember our time spent together as swimming officials while our children swam for the Cincinnati Marlins. Stephanie had such a sweet personality and that million dollar smile! She would light up a room-or pool deck, as the case may be! My heartfelt condolences go out to her children, Emily and Alex and her entire family. May Steph’s memory always be for a blessing to her family and all who mourn her passing.

Stephie, my dear friend and neighbor; I just cannot believe you are gone. You were always a delight to be around. Your smile and caring spirit were loved by all who met you. I have so many memories with you. Thank you for sharing so much of your life with me. I am so happy to have known such a lovely, kind person. My heart is so sad and I will miss you everyday. My deepest condolences to Nancy, Allison, Charlie, Sandy, Alex, Emily and family. Be with the angels Stephie; teach them what compound word are and smile down on us! Love ya,

Stephanie was wonderful person and helped my daughter at the Y and at Colerain. So sad to hear. Prayers for all.

I am very saddened to hear this news. Coach Janke provided so many cherished memories not only on the pool deck, but every day at school as well. She was always there when you needed a listening ear or a good giggle; providing love, support and that never ending smile. I am very lucky to have had her in my life, and I wish the family all the best.

Knowing Stephanie since 2nd grade, words cannot express the loss we all feel. She was always so nice and caring to everyone. I’m so glad I got to talk with her at our reunion. Her smile was the most genuine smile I’ve ever seen. She impacted so many people for the better. Fly high, Stephanie, as I know you will continue to help others from Heaven.

So sorry to hear this. I worked with Stephanie at the Gamble-Nippert YMCA during our college years. She was a blast to work with. She always had that beautiful smile on her face . She had me laughing all the time. Sometimes I would hang out with her and her friends on the weekend when she went to see her boyfriend at the time, play in his band at East End.
Prayers for the family.

Stephanie was a great person to work with at Colerain High. We had some great times together. My prayers are with Emily and Alex and the Hicks family.
She had a great smile and a kind heart.

Ms/Coach Janke, was truly one in a million. Her kind heart, beautiful smile, & compassion for all those her around her made everyone’s day! The world is a little dimmer without her bright light in it. My thoughts & prayers are with Emily, Alex and the rest of her family. May she Rest In Paradise.

My heart was broken when I heard of Stephanie’s passing. She was a kind, compassionate, and loving person who will be missed by family and friends.
If Stephanie was your friend, you were a friend for life. Proud to have called her my friend.
Rest in peace Stephanie, the peace you so richly deserve.

She was my friend that I called Stephie. We worked together at Colerain and coached. Her smile and laughter made this world a better place. I will think of you often and how you lived your life to the fullest and every sunset I will imagine you on the beach doing what you loved.
