Stephanie Vincent is a dedicated Funeral Director and Embalming Apprentice with a deep-rooted commitment to service, education, and community. Born in Germany to two U.S. Army veterans, Stephanie grew up with a strong sense of discipline, empathy, and civic responsibility—principles that continue to guide her both personally and professionally.
A 2004 graduate of West Albany High School, Stephanie later moved with her family to Salem, Oregon. She pursued higher education at Chemeketa Community College, earning her Associate of Arts Oregon Transfer (AAOT) degree before transferring to Oregon State University, where she completed a double Bachelor of Arts in Art History and History. Continuing her pursuit of lifelong learning, Stephanie is currently enrolled at Mt. Hood Community College, working toward an additional Associate of Applied Science degree in Funeral Service Education.
Her family is also actively involved in Salem Harvest, a local agricultural volunteer program that helps provide fresh produce to food banks and families in need. Through this program, volunteers glean leftover crops—sharing them between local food banks and the volunteers themselves—helping ensure that fresh, healthy food is accessible to everyone in the community.
