My heart goes out to you on this profound loss of your beloved son, and brother.
I believe that Stephen was much like St. Francis...he sought to console much more than to be consoled. He probably didn't realize the profound positive impact he had on his friends' walk with Christ, by merely humbly asking for their prayers and understanding. Stephen always had his own unique courage and appeal.
I send my love, prayers and sympathy to your family.
Love,
Joyce Baker [Visconti] Clemons
