Stephanie was born April 24, 1980, in Dubuque, IA, the daughter of Jeffery John and Janice Mae (Vaske) Bahl. On July 3, 2010, she was united in marriage to James “Jim” Eline in Dubuque. She graduated from Wahlert High School in 1998.

Stephanie was a member of Church of the Resurrection in Dubuque and St. John Vianney in Bettendorf. She loved baking, sunflowers, talking with people, and traveling, especially to the ocean. She and Jim always made sure the kids went on trips with them also.  She loved dolphins and even got to swim with dolphins on her honeymoon.  She loved the colors of the ocean but her favorite color was purple.  She enjoyed her cats Tim and Eric.  Stephanie’s main focus was family. She was an excellent god mother, always kept track of family traditions, knew all of the birthdays, never missed a family function and was always the last to leave. Above all else, she enjoyed being a mom.

Survivors include her husband, Jim Eline of Bettendorf, IA; two children, Leo and Elisabeth Eline; four brothers, Josh (Sara) Bahl of Asbury, IA; Jonathan (Kayla) Bahl of Maquoketa, IA; Justin (Molly) Bahl of Bernard, IA; and Jacob (Nicole) Bahl of Dubuque, IA; 17 nieces and nephews, Shawn, Ryan, and Willa Eline, Emily, Luke, Lindsey, Sam, Harper, Hudson, Jonny, Jetlyn, Lillian, Joseph, Calvin, George, Arthur, and Winston Bahl;  her mother-in-law, Lucia Eline of Littleton, CO; two brothers-in-law, Andrew (Sarah) Eline of Littleton, CO and Christopher Eline of Granby, CO; and several aunts, uncles, and cousins.

She was preceded in death by her parents; grandparents; father-in-law, Leonard Eline; her godfather, Terry Bahl; and an uncle, Mark Monaghan.

The family would like to extend a special Thank You to Hospice of Dubuque, her care team at Finley and Luther Manor Grand Meadows, and all of the family and friends for their care and support.
