expectedly on Friday, August 28, 2020 in an

Goldberg; her beloved husband Andy Mag-
gion; her loved stepchildren Derek and Sarah
Maggion; and her brother Jeffrey (Holly)
Lish. She was preceded in death by her
brother Robert (Julie) Lish. She committed
her life to her family and ever-expanding net-
work of friends. She inspired all of us with
her laughter and love, her style and spirit, her
vitality and vivaciousness. Stacy found good-
ness in all of us. Stacy was passionate about
life and treasured its infinite gifts. Her in-
terests were broad and diverse, ranging from
dogs, cats and animals of every variety (even
chickens, bees, hawks, ospreys an d
donkeys!), to pottery, painting and other art,
to clamming and crabbing, to travel and, nat-
urally, to shopping. Stacy, a Syracuse Uni-
versity alum, had a flair for event planning,
which captivated so many clients and
touched many more hearts. But, above all,
her enduring gifts and greatest treasures are
her family and especially her children. In view
of Stacy’s desire to preserve Barnegat Bay,
save ospreys and cure cancer, contributions
in her memory may be made to:
