Stella grew up on a farm near Calmar. She married her husband Steve and spent the rest of her life in Edmonton. Stella was a stay at home mom until her husband passed away in 1961, and later worked part time at Eatons Department Store. She had many hobbies including arts and crafts, needle point, sewing, knitting and she was also a great cook. Stella moved to the St. Basils retirement residence and lived there for 27 years. Stella was a member of the UCWLC and spent many days volunteering her time making perogies and cabbage rolls with the ladies.
The family would like to thank the staff at the Devonshire Care Centre for their caring devotion and also Dr. Gerwal for his compassionate care and concern.
