J. Stuart Krebs

Where do I begin with my wonderful memories of Stuie? Perhaps when I was a child and he came back from Germany ( and visited my family in NJ) with a VW which we all had never seen before. We all posed in front of it. When he married Barb, we all fell in love with our new 'cousin'. This really was the BEST thing he ever did. I have the distinction of 'saving his life' (his words) when he was stung by a swarm of bees. Sven was 3 months old, Barb was at work, and I somehow carried (dragged???)...

What a wonderfully full and fun life. Barb, I just learned so much about you! Heartfelt sympathies to your entire family

Stu Krebs was a hero of mine - a true wise man in my world. I enjoyed his take on life and the world an actually back in the day tried to create situations that he could talk to and influence others as to his world view . I view like Abby etc ... , I literally loved him because I needed his wisdom in my crazy life to ground me to a the earth and its gifts. Stu was just the best , I wish I had spent more time with him ,, maybe a raft trip that would have been cool , yet I am thankful for the...

Sending my deepest sympathy to the Krebs family. The Cox and Krebs families go way back in the history of Montrose. Stu was a very unique, special person who definitely left his mark on this community, as did his parents before him. My deep condolences! Marilyn Cox

Stu and Barb were inseparable and always involved in community events and efforts that benefitted the community and natural resources. Truly be was a community icon, and he will be greatly missed at community events. He enriched my life by his enthusiasm, involvement and words of wisdom and his love of the land. A life well lived, respected and admired. RIP, dear friend.

What a wonderful, heartfelt tribute. And what a wonderful, full life lived. Thank you for sharing. <3

Now that is a life well lived...although I didn´t know Stuart I truly admire his approach to life and yes his timing was superb in both arriving and departing. Condolences to his family, RIP Stuart! Neil

I have fond memories of Stu when he and Barb live in Fort Collins, and he taught at CSU. He is a lover of nature and a just world and good soul. Rest in Peace, Stu Krebs.

Stu and Barb both have been wonderful friends and examples of great living since we met nearly 50 years ago in Ft. Collins. Despite all else going on they joined efforts to bring sustainable energy to PRPA; I helped them move to Montrose and of course we climbed a peak (Sneffels, with elderly dog and very young children) before the weekend was over. Smart and experienced enough to be delightfully humble but always value-added. Deep appreciation for Barb's extraordinary handling of Stu's...
