Stephanie Wall Hess

Our beloved Stephanie Wall Hess passed away peacefully, surrounded by family, on
September 18, 2020, after a courageous and graceful 8 year battle against ovarian cancer.

Stephanie was born in Bountiful, Utah on September 12, 1966 to IVon Ray Wall and Janice
Bevan Wall. After attending Woods Cross High School, she went on to graduate from Brigham
Young University. She married the love of her life, David Hess, in the Salt Lake Temple on
August 11, 1990.

Stephanie was a beacon of light to everyone she knew. She was everyone’s best friend. She
dedicated her life to serving those around her and was always looking for opportunities to uplift
and support those she loved.

She helped to build the Utah Survivor’s Teaching Students program where—together with her
“teal sisters”—she helped educate future healthcare providers about ovarian cancer.

Stephanie will be missed by her large family, her “teal sisters,” her extensive church community,
her young women, her friends and associates at My Tech High, her choir and soccer friends,
and all of the communities that she helped create to spread love. Everyone was made better
after interacting with Stephanie.

Stephanie is survived by her husband Dave, their 3 children Lauren (Mason) Hoffman,
Makenzie, and Cameron, who meant everything to her. She is also survived by her father IVon,
and her 4 siblings Robert (Terri) Wall, Lorie Wall, Scott (Janice) Wall, Jennifer (Mike) Cottle,and
her many cherished nieces and nephews.

The family would like to thank the clinicians and staff of the Huntsman Cancer Institute and the
Monarch Women’s Cancer Center. Special thanks to Doctors Karen Zempolich and Theresa
Werner for their compassion, friendship, and skilled practice of medicine.
