Dempsey, Stephanie
Dempsey, Stephanie Lynne, 52 received her wings to heaven peacefully at home while surrounded by her loved ones on the evening of July 27th, 2016.
She was born on January 18th, 1964 to Eugene Dempsey and Linda Rathgeber at the military hospital in Lawton, Oklahoma. She grew up in Kansas City, KS through her junior high school years and then moved to St. Louis, MO where she has resided from then on.
She and Steven Wioskowski were blessed with their son Tyler Christian Wioskowski on August 09, 2000. She has since been a devoted and loving mother.
She was successful in life no matter where it took her as she lived her life to the fullest. She was a stranger to no one and her impulsive sense of humor left everyone laughing with her. She’s a very dear friend to many and will always be remembered for her fun-loving heart, bubbly personality, smile, laugh, courage and kindness.
She’s been a loving and protective big sister to Sydney Dempsey, Shannon Dempsey and Ashlie Rathgeber and a dear aunt to nine nieces and nephews and eight great nieces and nephews. She is also survived by her loving grandmother and best friend Marjorie Philo, 93.
A memorial service will be held in her honor on Saturday July 30th from 1:00pm to 4:00pm at the Butterfly House, Faust Park, 15193 Olive Blvd, Chesterfield, MO 63017.
In lieu of flowers contributions can be made to breast cancer research or her gofundme page at www.gofundme.com/stephanie-dempsey to benefit her beloved son Tyler.
Beyond beautiful. Gone way to soon. My life is better having known Steph. I will miss our conversations & your presence. I’m confident you will always close by with amazings wings in a field of daisies. Till we meet again my sweet friend. In Gods hands.

Sweet words & tribute. Stephanie is singing praises to our Father in heaven. She told me “I know I’m gonna see Jesus before you guys!” I’ll remember her smile and precious heart to care about others even in her own pain. Tyler, may you always know that your Mom did the best she could for you and loves you!
Peace,

Life without that laugh, and the crazy silly things me and my friends can only refer to “Stephie Stuff” seems impossible! But knowing I now have an angel watching out for me who lives in heaven will help get me through. I’ll know that when I break a glass, trip upstairs, bum a cigarette, throw a drink at someone, or bust out laughing at a solom event my angel is there trying her best!?? I have had so many wonderful happy crazy moments and memories with this girl, I am so blessed! From our.first apartment together many trips (the actual driving flying kind) and to the happiest day of her life, the birth of her son, Tyler! Tyler was and is her world!!!
Gonna miss this girl bad! I love you Stephanie, your in my heart forever!
