One of our biggest "cheerleaders" was this AMAZING women Stephanie Trumen!! We are saddened to hear of her passing, and our prayers and thoughts are with her family.

Stephanie was a pillar of R&K from day one to present, and was a huge support for our agency and our staff. Her belief in us was a gift! Her straight forward approaches were delivered with love and laughs!

We were truly blessed to know Stephanie and to work with her. Her energy and smile were always so bright, and that will never be forgotten!!

Again, Our sincerest condolences to Stephanie's
Family who she loved with all of her being!

Stephanie was born on March 5th, 1963 and passed away on December 19th, 2025 at the age of 62
