Sending my deepest sympathy to the family. Stella, You were such a sweet lady and I loved playing cards with you, even if you won most of the time. Now you are with Leroy, whom you talked a lot about. You had a great life and were greatly loved by your family and friends. R.I.P. dear one. Love, Anne
