Stacy was a 1990 graduate of South Side High School. In her free time, she enjoyed flower gardening and found peace and joy in music, as well as the beauty of nature. She is survived by her beloved daughter, Sophia "Sophie" Swanson; her parents, Gregory and Kay Alberts; her brother, Brandon (Samara Sheray) Alberts; and her cherished nieces, Lilly, Bella, and Carly.

Truly the best mother anyone could ever ask for."

Yesterday

In the spring of 1974, we became neighbors with Stacy and her family. Stacy was 2 years old. Now, 50 years later, we are saying good bye. She was part of our lives, and she will be missed. God bless her and keep her close.
