Stella was my 1st cousin. Until today, we were not aware that Stella had passed away. I have many fond memories of my older cousin and her older brother, Peter as I would spend many summers in Youngstown with our extended family. We worked together in the dairy and later at the restaurant in downtown Youngstown. Her father, Uncle Mike, was my mentor and taught me many lessons how to run a profitable business. I recall vividly the many times we would run off to the movies without telling the aunts and uncles. I loved her dearly.
May my cousin rest in peace and may her memory be eternal.
Love,
