Deanna Stephenson
I didn’t know whether to share or not since I had not gotten the opportunity to meet her. Over the years, at my doctor office, pharmacy, hospital appointments, etc I always had to emphasize my year of birth. You see, my name is Deanna Stephenson and we shared many similar traits. It wasn’t until December at my salon appointment that I met someone who knew her personally. I made the statement that I wanted to meet her as soon as it was safe. I was so excited! When I found out today she had passed I was sad. Even though I never met her, I felt some part of me was missing that I didn’t know I had. Seeing she was an educator and her momma’s name was Ruby brought tears to my eyes. My momma was Ruby and I’m a teacher. My deepest sympathy to her family and friends. With a name like ours, she had to have been a special lady.
