It saddened me so much that my best friend and more a sister than sister-in-law passed away. I got the message via phone as I was away when family tried to contact me. There are not enough words to describe how wonderful a person Stella was, not only to her family but families of others' lives into which she entered. I will keep her in my prayers forever knowing she is peacefully resting on high with our Lord to whom she prayed every day. Either by attending mass or by her rosary before retiring at night. We had many great times going to heritage oriented events in Monessen and eating out at our favorite place Mitchell's for seafood. She loved to make the rounds with me to honor our relatives at cemeteries; helping me tremendously thru her pictures and information on our Kott family tree. What delight she was and will always be in my heart. Dearly missed today. I have a hole in my heart where she once resided.
