Obituary of Stephanie Lynn Graham

Stephanie L. Graham, 33, of Niles, passed away unexpectedly, at her home, on Monday, November 26, 2018.

Stephanie was born on September 16, 1985, in Kalamazoo, Michigan; the only child of Byron and Mary (Ingold) Graham.

After graduating from Niles High School, she worked at several fast food restaurants.  Stephanie loved her children; she enjoyed spending her days taking care of them. She had a soft heart for the elderly. She was known to spend time in conversation or just going for walks with the residents at nursing homes.  Stephanie was loved by many, and a friend to all.

Stephanie enjoyed hanging out with her friends-many of them she’s known since grade school.  She looked forward to spending time with her family in Kalamazoo during special occasions and holidays. Even though she had struggles in her life, she was very passionate about the love she had for her family, children and friends.

She was preceded in death by her grandparents, Wendell and Lorraine Graham, Donald and Fern Ingold; and a cousin, Cody Robbins.

Stephanie is survived by her parents, Byron and Mary Graham of Niles; children, Mariah Williams and Malek Carroll, along with many extended family members and close friends.
