She was born on November 4, 1941, in West Olive, Michigan, to the late William and Elna (Wilson) Kutz. Stephanie married Salvatore Pirrotta on January 15, 1962, in Spring Lake. After her graduation from high school, she worked at A & W Restaurant. She later became an LPN and retired from North Ottawa Community Hospital after 20-plus years.

Stephanie was a member of Friendship Bible Church in Montague for many years and loved going bowling and cooking. She enjoyed being outdoors fishing, going on road trips, and especially spending time with her grandchildren.

Stephanie will be lovingly remembered and missed by her husband of 62 years, Salvatore; two daughters, Kathleen Williams and Tracy (Scott) Bekins; her two sons, Sal (Joni) Pirrotta and Joe Pirrotta; eight beloved grandchildren: Andrew, Noah, Tyler, Ryan, Zoe, Ciera, Amadeus, Maximus; two great-granddaughters, Elanor and Lola; sister, Laura Regnier; and brother, Roger Kutz (Mary Mattson). In addition to her parents, she was also preceded in death by her brother-in-law, Fred Regnier.

The Funeral Service for Stephanie will take place at noon on Thursday, November 7, 2024, at Klaassen Family Funeral Home with her husband, Sal Pirrotta officiating. Visitation will be held one hour prior to the service at the funeral home.
