Son of Adam Stephen Dandridge and Caroline "Danske" Bedinger Dandridge. Stevie died unexpectedly following an attack of grippe (flu) while a student at the University of Virginia.

His mother later wrote:

"My thoughts go back to the time when there was a little boy here to fill the lonely old house with joy. One day, he was helping "Aunt Kate," and he said to her:

'Tell me somsin else to do for you Aunt Tatie, I'm twyin' to be a little Twistian child. I know I'd like it.'

Ah Stevie, Stevie! You have long been a heavenly child. Do you like it, dear, do you like it?"
