The Muirs (by way of the MD Charydczak’s) are sending our condolences 💐. Aunt Stephie was my Great Aunt. I have many fond memories of my Grandpa Andy’s sister of when I used to visit New Jersey as a child and a few visits when I am back on the east coast. I enjoyed hearing the stories of all the siblings and the lives they lived and how my Grandma Alice and Aunt Stephie spent time together. I imagine all the Charydczak siblings are together celebrating that Stephanie has joined them as they watch over us. A toast to them and may you rest in peace Aunt Stephie.
