Stephen passed away suddenly on June 18, 2026, from heart failure.
Stephen was born on Dec. 26, 1964, in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., to Richard and Sally Godfrey. In 1966, the family moved to Killington to take advantage of the state’s progressive programs for individuals with special needs.
Stephen attended school at Steven Patrick Christian Manor in Randolph and Bancroft North in Owl’s Head, Maine. During the summers, he truly enjoyed his time at Silver Towers and Camp Thorpe. Known for his endearing personality and infectious sense of humor, Stephen made friends easily. He loved music of all kinds and took great joy in drawing pictures for friends to “to put on their refrigerators.”
Stephen was predeceased by his parents, Richard and Sally Godfrey. He is survived by his brother, James Godfrey; his sister-in-law, Eileen; his nephew, Lucas Godfrey; and his fiancée, Michelle Hudson. He also leaves behind Cynta and Gary Bryant, his buddy Mitchell, Janine Parker, Michelle and Alex Wigginton — all who cared for Stephen with much love and kindness. Stephen will be remembered by countless other friends and extended family members whose lives he touched.
The family requests that any memorial tributes in Stephen’s name be made in the form of contributions to: Zack’s Place Enrichment Center, 73 Central Street, Woodstock, VT. 05091
