“All are welcome to attend to pay your respects,” Kim Scott wrote on Facebook. “She was a beautiful girl and we’d all love to see you to show your support for her.”
“I’ve laughed, I’ve cried, I’ve even tried to impersonate your brilliant cackle, but after 95 slides, I still don’t think I’ve done your beautiful life justice,” she posted separately on Facebook.
“You’ll always be our little sister and always be our Button-Nose. We love you Stephanie,” Kim Scott wrote.
Stephanie Scott’s other sister, Robyn Scott, has also shared several tributes to her sister on social media.
