She was born in a farm house, the daughter of Polish/Byelorussian immigrants; she lived with great Dignity and in the grandeur of Simplicity with complete Humility.

Throughout life she sang in several church choirs, enjoyed gardening, crossword puzzles and game shows. Stella's life was very full, the mother of Raymond and Debbie, Joan and Steve, Gene and Kathy, Marty and Vicki, and Robert, the grandmother of ten, the great-grand mother of ten, and the great, great grandmother of two. She was preceded in death by her husband Raymond (2017) and her son Edmond Anthony Ascolese (1971). Stella was the matriarch of four succeeding generations. A faithful Roman Catholic, Stella traveled to The Holy Land, the Vatican, and The Great Marian Shrines of Europe. The Rosary was always at hand.
