Stella Gullett

Stella Gullett, 93, of Reesville, died on Monday, January 31, 2011 at the Liberty Nursing Center in Jamestown.

Stella was born on July 4, 1917 in Greenup, Kentucky, the daughter of George and Sarah Scaggs Hieneman. She married Mitchell Gullett on August 22, 1935, and he preceded her in death in 2000.

In addition to her parents and her husband, she was preceded in death by six brothers and one sister.
