    Karen , Kathryn & Family,

    We are so saddened by the passing of Stella. We also got to know her here in Chatsworth. We will remember our dear friend & dinner companion for many months. She was always kind & had a special gift to make us laugh. We know, that we speak for Jean as well, when we say that we will never forget her.

    Sincerely,

    Hans & Ina

    Karen, Ron and family, I am sending my most sincere condolences to you all. As you well know I did not know her well until moving into Chatsworth and for that reason I am so pleased that Stella was here. She has been such a great friend to me and life here will not be the same without her. I feel absolutely blessed to have had the honor and pleasure to sit at Stella and Jeans table.
