Our Stephen's Memorial

How do you capture in words how much a man like Stephen means to those he touches? We are all shattered by the loss of such a great friend; someone who never left you in any doubt that he cared about you, would go to the ends of the earth to help you, and lived for those "weird" moments that would leave you laughing until your sides hurt. 



Stephen's many families are devastated by his loss, from his beautiful soulmate Joy, to the many friends on and off the mountains who he has pulled into his Northwest family.



Stephen leaves behind many loved ones, some he was with the day he died and others he has not seen in years. In order to honor his wishes for a legacy of absolute love, we want to help fly his brother, his mother, and his uncle up to Seattle to meet his other families and see the places he loved so much. In addition to helping fund their travel and expenses up here, our goal is to have additional funds to allow Joy to honor Stephen's amazing life and legacy, either through a physical memorial or a donation in his honor to the causes most important to him.



Stephen... 
Our friend,
Our healer,
Our goat-man,
Our companion,
Our adventurer...
Climb on.
