It’s hard for me to put into words what Stella and the Vostatek family have meant to me. They were like a second family growing up, welcoming me into their home and on many family events.
I got to know Stella and the rest of the family through Dave, my best friend. It was a friendship that was cut short way too soon.
Stella was truly the matriarch of the family, being both stern and loving, you knew where she stood. She was always one “in the know” and always curious about what was going on with you.
Though the years had separated us, Stella and the Vostatek family are always in my heart.
