Thinking of you, as always. Love and miss you tons!
Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this very difficult time. Know that we carry you in our hearts always. With love, Kathie and Richard Mansfield and family.
I was so sorry to learn of Stephen’s passing. I met him during one of my chemo therapy sessions and came to know him a little more in subsequent sessions. He was a kind, gentle soul, but let’s not forget his sense of humor! He had the patients, who would have rather been doing anything else, giggling at his jokes and stories. I did not know him for very long, but am blessed that our paths crossed.
There are the saddest of times
When death takes one so dear to us
Without any warning, unexpected
And in our grief, we bid our sad farewell
XOXOXO

I cannot fathom the pain & loss your family is feeling. Camilla told me of your loss and I told my boys, Derek & Jeremy. It’s been a long time since we’ve spoke and that Stephen & Jeremy have played since we moved to Norfolk 15 years ago. Know that your family is in our thoughts & prayers.
