Stephanie is a people person. She has a special knack for telling stories (things that really happen). She can tell you about something bad that happened and have you laughing so hard you can’t catch your breath. She is my "bubbling sunshine."

Stephi in the Red Bud Tree (Dusty got his tree fascination from his Mom.) 1969

I don’t have every year pictures for Stephi because her house was hit by a tornado and she lost all her pictures. I went through my pictures and gave a lot of them to her. May 1999

Stephi & birds I received this picture from Stephi when they lived in Lubbock, TX. On the back it says "I had PMS and a gun and they came in my yard." (She did not shoot the birds. Someone else did. They just cleaned and ate them.) 2003

I had not seen Stephi in over a year. We could not go to Lubbock and she could not afford to come to our house. David flew her from Lubbock to Houston and brought her to our house as a birthday present for me. One of the few times they surprized me.
