Long time friend and dear sweet person … Stella …..we were friends at Lutheran High School and here it is 2020 and friendship is renewed and strengthened by “Lunch Bunch” connections. Stella was a big part of our lunches, before her many
physical problems claimed her time and strength. Byron was her ever faithful support – We will miss you but you ;have joined
so many of our friends and families to be face to face with our loving Savior – may you rest in peace – you will be missed!!

Stella was a classmate of ours at Lutheran High School. It was great getting back together years later with the Class of ’54 Lunch Bunch – a fun loving group! Stella had that great smile and special laugh. She was a gentle spirit and had a heart of “gold!” What a peace to know she is once more her vibrant and happy self. She is with our Lord and loved ones. Our sympathy to Byron and all her family. Leon and Joann (Hoffmann) Steinbrueck
