Dear Wolfer Family-
We would like to extend our sincere sympathy to all of you. Stella was a really lovely lady, we loved chatting with her. She had a wonderful sense of humor, a kind and giving heart and a beautiful soul.
Stella and Jake were the perfect couple. We loved shopping at their store. The butcher shop was the best place for meat, ice cream, all sorts of items and the entertainment was the best! Your parents shop was the life of the neighborhood.
May...

I knew Stella from Sacred Heart Assisted living.
We used to talk a lot, and I also sometimes did her fingernails.
She was a wonderful woman, and I’m so glad that I got to know her.
I will miss her.

Mike, Marti and all the Wolfer family Sharon and I offer our deepest sympathy for the loss of Giza. She was a wonderful and sweet lady who lived a long and incredible life and always had an amazing smile and sense of humor. She will be missed by all who knew her. She kept Jake waiting a long time to meet his bride once again. May she rest in peace knowing she was loved dearly by her family and friends.

Her charm, courage and warmth of spirit will be greatly missed.
