On Saturday August 17th, while in her sleep at home, our precious Stori passed on to eternal life. Our hearts are heavy with the loss of our beautiful, sweet girl. Stori fought her cancer with grace, courage and dignity. We pray for her and for all of those who are affected by this insidious disease. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to The Hospice and Palliative Care Center of Mitchell County, 236 Hospital Drive, Spruce Pine, N.C. 28777. Thank you for all of the prayers, support and heartfelt condolences.
I love you and miss you, sweet, beautiful cousin. I can't believe it's been 5 years. I have a collection of your cards and letters that I treasure, along with so many wonderful memories. Though we miss you deeply, I am so thankful you're in no more pain, but, it's an eternal joy you're experiencing, which could never be explained here on earth.
Allow me to celebrate your Birthday, dear Stori.
Every day I celebrate you and know, that you feel that connection up in heaven. You are very close to me in my heart and I feel your presence often.
Like when the birds are singing, I hear your voice, reminding me of the beautiful times we could share together. Other artifacts and pictures from the past surrounding me to give you an honorable place in my home and heart.
Love always, your friend

No time to feel sorrow and despair.

A love story second to none evolved with Stori and Jon.
Jon helped give Stori the strength to live life.
Two became one to live and love… and compete with the challenges of life.
Positiveness was the goal… and each gave strength to the other as needed.
Sweety and Honey…. What a team.

We gather today to celebrate Stori.
Relatives… friends… and most important… Stori’s “honey”.
Her companion… her advocate… and her protector.
