Funeral Expenses for John Stephens

Hello, my name is Madison Reedy and I am John Stephens little sister. John and his long term girlfriend, Elizabeth “Lizzie” Ladd were in a hit and run accident while on their motorcycle together driving home from work. Lizzie is recovering in the hospital but unfortunately John did not survive the accident. The hospital, Mercy, was unable to get him stable enough to fly from Fort Smith, AR to UAMS in Little Rock, AR to see the neurosurgeon and John died of a TBI and suffered several broken bones and skull fractures. We thank the hospital for their efforts and time in trying to save him.

John was the absolute light in every room that he walked into, you never knew what was going to come out of his mouth, but you always knew you would leave every interaction with him with a smile on your face. He was also the best big brother I could ever ask for, he always made sure I was well taken care of and if I called he would be where I was in minutes. John was also an uncle to two nephews and a niece who all loved him dearly, as well as a brother to several others, a son, a boyfriend, a cousin, and many other titles.

We are all devastated by John's loss and were not prepared for the high cost of a funeral service. We want to give John the memorial he deserves, to honor his memory and say our last goodbyes. I am currently asking for donations to help cover the cost of John's funeral. If you are not in the position to help, we completely understand and the unconditional love and support we have received thus far is helping in ways you wouldn’t believe. Thank you and we appreciate any help that we may receive.

Rest in peace bubba, we miss you so much already.
