Stephani Stellabotte, age 61 passed away on Thursday, July 4, 2024 in Bakersfield, California. Stephani was a free soul and a friend to every person whom she crossed paths with. She was constantly caring for and helping others.
At a young age, life dealt Stephani a hard hand. She lost her mother as a teenager, and early into her young adult life, her father passed away. While pushing through this pain she managed to do so with a smile on her face and a carefree attitude.
She was blessed with two children. A daughter Destiny Stellabotte-Fine, 3 grandchildren, Parker Venghaus, Peyton Venghaus and Gage Zapalac. Her second child a son, Chance Dye, he was her pride and joy! He came along later in her life, but was her reason for living.
She had a passion for her dogs, many along the years, but most recently, her Peanut. They were not just animals to her, they were family.
Stephani was born April 7, 1963 in Bakersfield, California to parents Arthur Stellabotte and Diana Walker. Raised by her grandparents, Memaw and Papa. She was their light. In addition, joked, that she was their favorite. She was many things in life, some great, and some not so great, but the one thing we know for sure, SHE was loved by so many.
If you had the chance to have known Stephani, better known as Margo to her friends. Mom to her children, and Memaw to her grandbabies, you were truly blessed.
A visitation for Stephanie will be held Friday, July 19, 2024 from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at Funeraria Del Angel Hillcrest, 9101 Kern Canyon Road, Bakersfield, CA 93306.
