Dianne Elliott wrote a sympathy message

“I met Stella only once. Because I had gone to Queen's, we had an immediate bond - she had loved her time there. She gifted my husband and I with her retirement gifts - a set of wine glasses with the Queen's Crest on them. We will have a drink to Stella with them tonight. She was a role model - someone I hope to be like when I am older - a person with a joie de vivre and a kind heart. Mike and Theresa, Doug and I send our condolences. Cha-gheill. Dianne Elliott and Doug Hunt”
