To Les, Teresa(Chip) and Lisa, and the rest of the family. I was saddened to hear that Miss Stella had passed away. The first thought that came to my mind was, how our son (Dwayne Brown-“Brown Eye) always talked about how much he liked Miss Stella and the rest of the family. He spent a lot of time with them during his High School years. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to each of you, also the same thoughts come from Lorraine. May God make smooth the path before you all (children, grand children).you will have some hard times ahead. Those times will be made easier,by remembering all the good time and the love that you shared together. May she rest in peace, until you are all re-joined once again. God bless each of you. Your friends in Christ,
Ray and Lorraine

Teresa-Sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. Peace be yours.
Les, Teresa and Lisa, I’m so sorry to hear of Stella passing. I grew up knowing Stella and saw the Love she had for her children . She always had unconditional love for everyone whom she came in contact with. She will be greatly missed and her smile will be forever with me and in my soul. Love you “STELLA” and yes “I am so crazy “. I’m going to miss hearing that from you.
Stella worked for me many years ago and I kept in touch with her from time to time. She was a real friend that I thought a lot of. I just now was seeking to get in touch with her when I found that she had passed. I only wished that I had of reached out earlier.I miss my dear Stella
