Stefa, as close friends called her, was a strong woman, having fled from a world war as a teenager, spent several years in a displaced person’s camp and traveled across the world to America.

She was a wonderful cook and baker and many happy hours were spent around the dinner table with family and friends. She was very active in her churches, Sts. Peter & Paul Ukrainian Catholic Church and St. Michael Ukrainian Catholic Church. She had an amazing memory of the people, places and events in her lifetime. She loved her needlework, making Ukrainian pysanky (or decorated eggs) and her gardening.

She and everything she gave will be greatly missed by her family all over the world.
