The world has lost a wonderful, giving, and caring lady. She was predeceased by her husband William and her daughter Marie. Stella never spent any time in a care home as she was taken care of by her family, in whose arms she passed away. She managed to remain mobile pretty well to the end of her life allowing her to enjoy various activities and be happy. Her granddaughter Candice gave her special care. Stella was a sister, aunt, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She’s gone to be with the angels. The family would like to give a special thank you to Dr. Chris Fotti for his excellent care of Stella in her twilight years.
On July 29,2023 at 1:00 p.m. a service will be held at St. Alphonsus church, located at 341 Munroe Avenue. A private gathering for the family will be held afterwards.
