Stella Pass walked through several hard experiences to find her ministry in life. In 1976 she had surgery and found out she had cancer, and less than 30% chance of surviving. She went through radiation and two years of chemotherapy and only by the grace of God is still healthy. She worked with people who had cancer and helped people dying with cancer and felt this was her mission in life and it was, for a few years. Then her youngest daughter got in with the wrong crowd, stated experimenting with drugs and alcohol and she and her husband, Len, embarked on their present ministry, which is helping parents and children resolve their differences and become a more tolerantg and loving family. They are active in toughlove parent groups. Come and see what the Lord will do for you and your family. God answers prayer.

IN MEMORY OF DENNIS MICHAEL NOWAKOWSKI In loving memory, our ion, Dennis Michael Nowakowski, September 18, 1945 - February 28, 1993. "God gives us memories that we may have roses in December.” We have that abundance of "roses” by the tangible evidence of the love we shared. When you came to the edge and stepped out into the unknown, your faith taught you there would be someone to meet you at the gates to heaven. Our tears are not a sign of weakness, nor loss of faith, but the price of our love for you. We had 47 years together and now we must manage to go on with our lives and will always remember those wonderful years of your happy smile, laughter and love. Until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of his hand. Your Loving Parents IN MEMORIAM DENNIS MICHAEL NOWAKOWSKI Boni September 18, 1945 Gentle man, beloved uncle. God was with you at the end and tenderly escorted you home. You are gone from our lives, but not from our hearts. We miss you and love you, and are always in our thoughts and prayers. Brother Terry, Wife Elaine and Family IN LOVING MEMORY DENNIS MICHAEL NOWAKOWSKI Sept. 18, 1945 - Feb. 28, 1993 Remembering all the wonderful times we shared together. You showed us love in many ways, and even though God called you home, you are gone from our lives, but not from our hearts. We miss you and will love you forever, dear brother. Your Loving Family Sister Dianne (Edward) Gronowski Mark and Francesca, nephew Douglas and Debra, nephew Lisann, niece IN LOVING MEMORY OF PHYLLIS HAHN Who would have celebrated her birthday September 4. It’s been four sad and lonely years now since we said goodbye. You know you wouldn't have wanted us to cry. I think of you day after day. I think oh Lord why did He take her away. But God had a special place that only you could fill. I love you then and always will. So rest now and maybe some day we’ll all be together to laugh and play. I often think of you and see you oh so clear its then that 1 wish within my heart that you were really here. Your smiles are gone forever, your hands I cannot touch. God saddened my heart to prove to me that your hard working hands come to rest. I love you. Sadly missed By Mildred Bays
