Jessica has been one of Stephanie’s most influential friends over the years. The pair met young and as they have grown neither distance nor time apart have been able to break down their relationship. When Jessica took off to UT, Stephanie followed right behind her (despite never being much of a Vol fan). Jessica has opened her heart and home and been there through hard times and so many more good times. They have that rare, lifelong type of relationship where you can show up in PJs, lay on each others couch, and the only question you are asked is do you want some wine? 🍷
