“The outpouring of love has been overwhelming. It is a testament to who Stephanie was. We are receiving donations from former teachers, friends, stores she frequented and they all say the same thing. Stephanie was a beautiful person and deserves to be remembered.” – Coach Tara Foglia, Smithtown HS West Whisperettes
