Songs for Stephanie
I was asked to put together music for the gathering after the Celebration of Steph’s life on April 7th. It was one of the toughest playlists I’ve ever had to put together. They combine songs that were some of Steph’s favourites, tunes for reflection, and others that were meant to be uplifting – all while trying to keep the tears streaming down my cheeks off the laptop.
