Stephanie Allison “Super Steph” Hall, 39 years young, St. Louis, MO, made her dramatic entrance into this world on May 14th, 1985, as a 2 lb. 6 oz. “super preemie”, but left us all too soon on February 12, 2025, after a long-fought battle of almost 8 years following a double-lung transplant on May 22, 2017, her second “birth day”.
Steph was a ray of sunshine to everyone who met her. Even facing monumental health issues that most people would have succumbed to, this 5′ 1″ powerhouse earned the nickname of “Super Steph” by defying death so many times we lost count. She struggled through countless hospitalizations, always full of optimism. She knew all the doctors’ and nurses’ names and they knew hers. Unfortunately, her fight ended when pneumonia took the life of our shining star. She could fight no longer.
Steph never met a dog or a person she didn’t like! She was always smiling, and in her younger years was a dancer and a talented singer till her lung issues stole her beautiful voice. She was part of the St. Louis Children’s Choir and the Variety Club Children’s Choir and sang at the White House, Powell Symphony Hall and on the Jerry Lewis Labor Day Telethons. She loved the theater and musicals, even acting in some plays. She also dearly loved her St. Louis Cardinals and going to many, many concerts, even when she needed a wheelchair to get around. She loved everyone from Paul McCartney to Avril Lavigne to Lindsey Stirling.
She also dearly loved her family, most importantly the love of her life and soulmate, Chris R. Clark. They were together for 20 years and he stuck by her side through thick and thin, becoming her main caretaker for the last years of her life. She is also survived by loving family members Carol Lou (Lucy) Hacker, Joanna Dulle, Dawn Dulle (Dulany Harms), Michael Dulle (Lisa Dulle), Dana Dulle and her beloved dog Hershey, her half-brother Jeff A. Long and half-sister Amy M. Poirot (nee Long), and Chris’s dad William (Bill) R. Clark. She was preceded in death by her mother Karen Susan Hall (nee Schweiger), her twin sister Mallory Elizabeth Hall, her father John P. Long, and her dearly beloved “GG”, Marcelien E. Schweiger (nee Doriot), who loved her “a bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck”. She is also survived by many beloved cousins, her aunt Norma Schweiger, her lung-transplant family, her many godmothers, her dedicated caretaker Linda Phillips, scores of friends and hundreds of social-media followers who cheered her on during her long journey and now mourn her loss.
Memorial visitation is planned for Friday, February 21, 2025, at Kutis Funeral Home, 10151 Gravois Rd., St. Louis, MO, from 1-9 p.m. with a service at 7 p.m. A Celebration of Life will be planned in May, date to be determined later.
Donations in her honor may be made to Shelter Friends, Inc., (www.shelter-friends.com) and Mid-America Transplant (midamericatransplant.org).

Super Steph brought a smile to everyone she met. She will be missed by so many. She had an unbreakable spirit despite all the struggles life threw her way. She constantly exhibited superhuman strength and perseverance. She is now truly the angel we all loved and is likely enjoying a pepperoni pizza in Heaven with that beautiful smile! Dawn, Chris, Jo Jo and Dana, our sincerest condolences.

I did not know Steph personally, but was in awe of how strong and determined she was in the face of all her struggles. She was surely a force to be reckoned with. So sorry she left this earth so soon. I was inspired by her tremendous strength and her ability to smile inspite of the circumstances. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family and close friends. I know how terribly she will be missed by so many who loved her. Heaven gained an Angel!
My bestie Steph,
I sure do miss you! You were an amazing friend & a fun concert buddy! I will forever be grateful to have known you had you in my life & to call you a friend! You were always so positive no matter your situation. I’ll never forget your laugh & your voice. You’ll always be close to my heart & never forgotten. You made everyone’s life better by just being in it. This world has lost an amazing person & soul. But you’re finally healed now.

I first met Stephanie through Bethany Bollinger, years ago. She was a ray of sunshine. We didn’t hang out often, but she always put a smile on my face. I remember going to Walmart to shop, seeing her working and talking to her for what felt like minutes but ended up being a lot longer. Stephanie was always so cheery, no matter what she was going through. The battles she faced are not for the weak! She was definitely a strong woman.
I didn’t know Steph for very long, but her passion for life, her support for others, and her variety of interests made her an absolute joy to talk with.
Most of my memories of Stephanie were playing board games together when I was little. She was always so cheerful!
I wasn’t able to attend Steph’s. visitation however, I hope to attend her celebration of life.
I met Stephanie a couple of months before her lung transplant as I was considering moving into the house right across from hers. It was a while after that when I would see her family and especially Chris giving her so much support. Once home from rehab, Stephanie and I would chat from across the street. She was always the sweetest and most positive person I knew. I watched her on her road to recovery from my kitchen window. What a strong trooper she was!!! I will miss our little talks on FB. She will be so missed in our community. Condolences to her family and her ever present love and support, Chris. The world is a sadder place without you, sweet Super Steph!! 😢❤️
I have been friends with Stephanie since kindergarten. I will miss her so much. We had a lot of memories together. I’m still very sad she died. Wish I could have saw her and hung out with her one last time. I will always miss her. I know she didn’t know how much I loved her but I always loved her so much.
