About
The SwagStaffs
Stephen was injured in a diving accident in 1996 at the age of 19. As a result of this, he sustained a spinal cord injury at his 5th cervical vertebrae, rendering him a quadriplegic. Stephen married his high-school sweetheart, Julie, in December 1999 and together have sought to live life to its fullest despite many difficult “storms” life has brought their way. They reside in New Brunswick, Canada with their two dogs Charlie (service dog) and Huxley (in service training). Together they find joy in spending time with family, traveling, enjoying the great outdoors, and most of all, Loving God and Serving Others. Be sure to check out the Swags story.
