She looked forward to her daily calls from her special grandson, Matt, who was her handyman. She is also survived by many nieces and nephews. Her greatest pleasures were her daughter's and their families providing them with much love and beautiful memories.

Stephanie was a member of St. Benedict Catholic Church, Carrolltown. She retired from Miners Hospital housekeeping department. Her happiest moments, however, were spent in her home and kitchen passing on the traditions of homemade pierogies, stuffed cabbage and delicious potato cakes. She enjoyed listening to the polkas on Sunday mornings and watching baseball games and figure skating on television. The Tucker family would like to thank Dr. Dvorchak and a very special nurse, Amanda Hoover, who was her guardian angel, as well as nurses Laura and Mary. Friends will be received from 4 - 8 p.m. Monday at Moriconi Funeral Home, Inc., Northern Cambria and from 9:15 a.m. until time of funeral mass at 10 a.m. Tuesday at St. Benedict Catholic Church. Fr.
