Mrs. Salas totally adequate it seemed for a women so very important to those privileged to know her and so...the need is felt for other words to be said, Stella was very loved and appreciated by her family. We are not ashamed to say that Stella was indeed a woman wealthy in understanding and warm in feeling and concern for her family. Our mothers touch our lives in everything they do and leave us changed long after they have gone. The gifts they gave us can become a part of who we are--- a legacy of beauty that lives on... Adios, mother, grandma, sister, aunt, friend, and neighbor; you will be missed very much. We Love You Condolences may be sent to the family at www.lagroneruidoso.com.
