DEAN-KLUGER, Stephanie It is with a heavy heart that we share the very sad news of the passing of Stephanie Dean-Kluger, beloved wife of Jesse Dean-Kluger. Stephanie, 35, passed away April 16 after a valiant and exhaustive struggle with cancer, through which she was supported with enormous care and love by her devoted husband, entire family, and friends. Stephanie was a woman who was beautiful in and out – kind, compassionate, smart, delightful, and a family leader. The family and all of her friends are overwhelmed by her passing, but deeply grateful she was part of their lives. The funeral took place this past Sunday, however, due to current restrictions, the service was private. To protect everyone’s health, the family was unable to receive guests at the service or at their homes. Hundreds attended by Zoom; Stephanie reached that many lives and more. Besides Jesse, Stephanie is survived by her parents, Craig and Marlene Sirota, brothers Steven, Elijah, Jacob, Moses, and Joshua and sister, Leslie Muehlheuser (Chase); sister in law, Ana; her in laws, Amy Dean and Alan Kluger, sister and brother in-law, Todd and Lisa Jerles; nieces, Sophia, Adrian, Dagny, and nephews, Moses and Chase Jr. Contributions in Stephanie’s memory may be made to the University of Miami’s Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center. umiamihealth.org/sylvester-comprehensive-cancer-center/about-sylvester/giving/ways-to-give/donate-online Arrangements by Levitt-Weinstein Blasberg-Rubin-Zilbert Memorial Chapel (305) 932-2700

Stephanie and I were childhood best friends from way back in elementary school at Yates. I haven’t seen or talked to Steph since I was about 11 or 12. I have looked for her for a long time and was so excited to find her on social media late last night. I have missed her much. It seems like only yesterday we were playing and dancing with Theo and Saraih on the back porch at abuela and abuelo’s house in Hillside with Steven Michael, MoMo and Joshie or watching the lightning storm through the glass windows from the couches at the beach house on Anna Marie island that Marlena took us and the boys to for vacation before they moved. Crazy.. I am looking at those picture as we speak. I have and will never forget you Steph. Even as young as we were the impact that she made was tremendous. I wish we could have stayed in touch. My sympathies go out to all of the family and her husband. She was truly a special person that I will be forever grateful that I was able to have her in my life for the short amount of time we did. Rest in peace girl. I will always miss ya.
