Mary Stampley was Micah and Heidi Stampley’s only daughter. The couple parent four sons together.
Micah Stampley recently shared the joys of fatherhood in an op-ed post written for Huffington Post Black Voices. “Fatherhood is the most beautiful experience any man could encounter,” Micah told his readers. “There are many ups and downs that come with parenthood, but it is extremely important to be open-minded, patient, loving, caring and non-judgmental,” he added.
“I was a soft-spoken kid and wasn’t too much trouble for my parents, but a few of my older brothers were the total opposite,” Stampley explained. “I enjoy being a father and I embrace all the challenges that come with it.”
