Steph is survived by her mother Mary Carolyn White, her brother Christopher Scott Pace (Nicole), her nieces and nephews: Spencer, Taquan, Josiah, Darian, Jasmyn, and Jeremiah, as well as many aunts, uncles and cousins.

Steph worked at UVA Physicians Group for 15 years where she met several of her best friends: LaTonya Monroe and Tonya Jones.

Steph loved going on cruises, traveling, going to concerts and having fun with her special cousins and friends. Steph was one of a kind!

The family would like to extend a special thank you to Amanda & Bill Habansky (her favorite cousins), and her aunt Tammy Leake for sharing in her caregiving, to Dr. Matthew Reilly and his medical team at UVA Pantops for taking excellent care of Steph for the past three years and to Legacy Hospice Care who has been great support since July 2024.
