Shane, Boen, Olive-Rose, Harrison and Abigail we are so heartbroken for you all that you have lost your beautiful wife and mum, she will be very missed. It saddens us to know that there are going to be some extremely tough times ahead trying to navigate life without her around, may it bring you comfort with all the special memories you have shared together as a family.
Steph was so creative in so many ways..... the thing that really stuck out for us the most was her incredible scrapbooking and journaling, she had the most amazing handwriting. A real treasure for you all to look back on those precious moments she has created for you.
Shane you have been an absolute LEGEND caring for Steph especially over the last few months and even more so in the past two weeks of Steph's brave battle. You have been so strong for the kids sake in these tough times and remember we are all here for you to help out in any way we can. All our love and thoughts are with you all.
RIP Steph, taken way too soon.

Love Leanne, Isaac, Jayden, Sarah & Cameron xx

Steph was always keen on an adventure and was that true friend who ran in the cold rain, ran in the dark around the mountain, and swam in the murky waters of Lake Rotomanu just because I asked. We have had lots of fun over the years with running and you will be so missed, but never forgotten.. much love and ongoing friendship and support to Shane and family.

Dearest Steph, oh how I will treasure the special times we shared together. All the talks around the table at your place, cooking meals for others, churchtimes, girls day at the movies, such fun we had. Even though u were so bravely struggling this last few months, u would always manage a smile & a lovely hug hello. I know how incredibly proud you were of your family, Shane, Boen, Olive-Rose, Harrison & Abigail, u were always talking about them, your love was shining. That love will continue on always as their love is for you my dear friend. Rest in Love with your Jesus. Will miss u so muchJo
