She was born July 12, 1927, in Pittsburgh PA, she was the daughter of the late George and Maria (Masich) Krivanich. Stella’s life was a challenge early on, as she lost both her parents while in her early teens.

Perhaps this is why she was devoted to and focused on her family, which was her greatest joy, and whom she loved with all her heart. Whether it was visiting with or just talking on the phone to her many sisters and brothers and friends, or cooking, baking, and raising her children, Stella’s love and nurturing was always evident. The cherished memories that were created at the family home will never be forgotten.

Also, brother Steve Krivanich of Port Vue, Godson Vince (Marg) Scotti of Columbia, many brother and sister in laws, nephews, and neices.

Stella was a member of the St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Church of McKeesport. The family would like to acknowledge and thank her Caregivers at Seneca Manor and Seneca Place for all of the care and friendship they provided over the years.
