Steffany Artiles McClure

Steffany Artiles McClure, 32, passed away on June 11, 2025. Beautiful, loving, and impactful, Steffany lived her life with fierce devotion to her husband, children, family, friends, and those lucky enough to know her. She was known for her spontaneity, passion, and joy, full of laughter, warmth, and truth. Her presence was powerful, and her love unconditional.

Steffany married her childhood sweetheart and, despite the challenges of being a teen mom, graduated high school and went on to continue her education as a Pharmacy Technician. She balanced her career, school, marriage, and motherhood with strength, grace, and humor. She was passionate about her family, friendships, music, learning, shopping, movies, cars, and racing – and she was involved with the FBC Car Club and UMA.

She was outgoing, charismatic, and wonderfully clumsy, with a sense of humor and zest that filled every space she entered and captivated everyone she met. Loud, enthusiastic, crazy, and sweet, Steffany was the life of the party and the heart of her home. She was a source of advice, comfort, and laughter, never shying away from the truth, always speaking from the heart, and always leading with love. No child crossed her path without being made to feel like one of her own.

Steffany’s most cherished memories with her family and friends include the birth of her children and her engagement, Disney family vacations, riding slingshots, Ouija board sessions, movies nights, New Year’s Eve adventures, late-night McDonald’s runs, singing “Tito El Bambino” on her birthday, talking on long drives about everything and nothing, nights at Causeway, Gandy and Tampa Lanes. She is remembered for always showing up for people and her sparkle that made others feel safe, seen, and loved. Her words, like "TECO!", "Don’t be a punk!", “Everything happens for a reasons”, “God works in mysterious ways”, "Good night, sweet dreams, sleep with the angels", and "Love you. Bye!", still echo with her unmistakable warmth. She loved fiercely, gave generously, and carried a radiance that was felt by everyone lucky enough to know her. She led with honesty, whether giving advice, offering a laugh, or just being there to listen.

She is survived by her husband Sean; their children Andre, Jayleen, Mateo, Erik, and honorary daughter Ayla. She also leaves behind her mother Janet, stepfather Yosvany, mother-in-law Tina, father-in-law Mike, sisters Jenny and Marilyn, sister-in-law Amber, niece Mckenzley and nephews Miguel and Eric, and many godchildren. Her best friends – who she called family – will forever miss her laughter, her loyalty, and her light. She was preceded in death by her father Jesus, grandfather Orlando, cousin Erikito, father-in-law Gary, husband’s grandmother Louisa, and three Rainbow babies.

Steffany will be remembered most for being a devoted wife and mother who loved her family more than anything in the world. Her family writes:

“In honor of Steffany, we encourage you all to cherish the ones you love a little harder, hug them a little longer, and try to live each day with the excitement that she carried around so naturally. Do not be scared to take a chance, try something new, chase a dream, and look at life differently because we never know what tomorrow may bring. We take comfort in knowing that Steffany is in Heaven with her loved ones, that she was finally able to meet her Rainbow babies, and that she will watch over her loved ones here on Earth with them by her side." ‍

"I love you 4ever and 4always, goodnight, sweet dreams and sleep with the angels, I love you!”
