I spent t good deal of time at the Oshaneks, especially after Jackie got sick. Stella’s home was always comfortable and I found out about hot tomato sandwiches there. She had a breakfast for us the morning after our Senior prom.
Jerri, I’m so sorry.
Love, Carolyn Kaiser
It is with sincere and deep regret that I learned of the passing of Stella and I will say a prayer for her and for those who loved her.

We are saddened by the loss of such a caring person. I had the awesome privilege of working with Stella. She had a very compassionate heart and definetly showed God’s Love to the needy of our community. You are blessed to have had her in your family. And we are blessed to have known her.

I will forever remember Aunt Stella on the dance floor at Cindy’s wedding. The crowds parted to marvel at her 90 yr. old agility as she choreographed her way through “YMCA” with Todd. She was an inspiration to all of us! It was a gift to have her in our lives for such a long lifetime, she will be remembered with much love. My heartfelt condolences to Jerri & Bob, Craig & Kris and family, and Todd.
