It was always a pleasure to visit with Stella and her smile never failed to brighten our day. A gardener extraordinaire and a truly lovely lady. Our thoughts are with you.

Dear Ralph,

It is with great sadness in hearing of the passing of Stella. I was very happy to have met her when visiting Ron & Irene. She was a lovable and gracious lady. The last time I chatted with her was December 12th, 2007. I will treasure that phone call.

God bless and my prayers are with you Ralph.

Love Mary (Ron's Mom)
