On Sunday, March 28, 2021, Argene passed away peacefully, surrounded by her loving family.  She was born “along the Mon” in Charleroi, PA during the Great Depression and raised on the sawthside of Pittsburgh.  She married Hubert Stockhausen in 1952, moved to Bethel Park, PA , and had three children, before moving to College Park, MD, in 1962, where she lived until her death.

She is preceded in death by her parents Agnes and Silvio Pollacci, brothers Silvio (Chuck) and Norman, and her loving husband of 56 years, Hubert.
