As a student that was directly impacted by Stephen's kindness, care, and helpful knowledge, I am deeply saddened to hear he has passed away. My heart is with the Brophy family as they deal with their loss.

I am grateful that Stephen always published me in the Fenway News. Thanks! Lisa

My heart goes out to The Brophy family on your precious loss: May you find some comfort in the Most High God’s written word. He promises to fulfill all that He has said (Titus 1:2). No more sickness(Isaiah 33:24). No more death (Isaiah 25:8). Seeing our loved ones again ( John5:28, 29) and he says where at Psalms 37:11 and how long Psalms 37:29). Later when you feel up to it, to read these few Scriptures of Comfort. They helped me when our daughter fell asleep in death. And, recently my husband fell asleep in death. And, I hope these Promises from God will be of some comfort to you as well. Especially, when One reflects on the way Jesus viewed death at John 11:11-14. Yes, God’s son Jesus viewed death as one Sleeping.
