We are very sorry for your loss. I enjoyed visiting with John these past 11 years as we would sit in the garage, have a High Life Light and talk. He was a very good neighbor. We will miss him. Rest in peace brother.

Hello Stanton Family!
Each of you are a beautiful reflection of your parents- they were so proud of all of you!! Your Dad was a pillar of a man! He honorably served his country and the Veteran Community. I always remember him laughing. There was always so much love & fun in the Stanton home. He is now hugging your Mom. My heart aches for you and my prayers are sent. Peace be with you. Much Love, Judy

My dear Uncle John I will always remember the love and support you have given to my family. You were not only my Dads brother but his best friend. I have so many great memories of our times together. You always had a joke to tell or a song to sing. After my Dad passed away, you made sure my brothers and Mom were taken care of, For that I will be forever grateful. I pray you are at peace and find comfort in joining Aunt Mary Lou and all your family and friends in Heaven. To all of my Uncle...
