We always brought Stan and Norma Yoder's popcorn from Shipshewana when we returned to Arizona. We visited them in their Michigan home and they returned the visit by visiting us on the lake in Michigan. He will be missed.

I first met Stan with Al Gilpin and John Broviak (your early neighbors at GV). And, of course, through golf. Alzheime's is a terrible way to end life. But, Stan hadled himself quite well for all the time I spent with him. I hope all the family can remember the Stan of pre A time. All the best, Ernie Boll
