Oh Gary and Nancy and family, I am so sorry to learn of Stella's passing. My heartfelt condolences for your loss. I know how much you loved her and she loved you all...and how much she loved the beach and our condo! She was a dear sweet 'southern belle' lady whom I thought the world of and so enjoyed getting to know her through our partnership. We will all miss her...but my heart goes out to you as you adjust to a new normal....certainly understand your loss. May the Good Lord Continue to Comfort and Guide you in the days ahead. Love and prayers to all of you.
