Regina A. Stevens
1969-2016
Rochester:
Passed away at the age of 47, October 27, 2016.
Gina was born to Carole A. Foster and Reginald Stevens. Survived by her siblings, Angelique Stevens, Sean Stevens, and Timothy Stevens; her niece, Caelyn; and her nephew, Connor.
Gina was a fighter. She spent many years battling disease and addiction until succumbing on October 27, 2016. She will be remembered for her fearlessness, her laughter, and her ability to see the beauty in small things. We will remember and miss you Gina.
"Remember the sky that you were born under,
know each of the star's stories.
Remember the moon, know who she is.
Remember the sun's birth at dawn, that is the
strongest point of time. Remember sundown
and the giving away to night.
Remember your birth, how your mother struggled
to give you form and breath. You are evidence of
her life, and her mother's, and hers.
Remember your father. He is your life, also.
Remember the earth whose skin you are:
red earth, black earth, yellow earth, white earth
brown earth, we are earth…"
