Henry T. Stanton

Henry T. Stanton passed away Tuesday, Aug. 20, 2024, surrounded by his family at his residence in Doylestown. He was 92 years old.

Born in Wilkes-Barre, Henry was the son of the late Theodore and Madeline Sarnick Stanton.

Although Henry lived most of his life in Mountain Top, where he built his unique brick home, he also lived in central Florida before moving to Doylestown 11 months ago.

Henry was the beloved husband of Ann Marie Schuetz Stanton; the couple shared 69 years of friendship, laughter, love and family.

He enjoyed spending time in the garden growing the best tomatoes, cultivating the sweetest apples and digging up horseradish roots. If not in the garden, Henry could be found in the garage engaged in a variety of activities such as creating beautiful wooden heirlooms for the family, fermenting sauerkraut, juicing apples and making wine.

In their earlier days, Henry and Ann Marie could often be found cutting the rug with their square dancing friends throughout the Wyoming Valley.

He was also instrumental in starting up the Citizens Voice Newspaper and had been an active member of the St. Jude's Knights of Columbus.

Henry is survived by his wife, Ann Marie; children, Terri Stanton, Susan Kenney (Jim), Ted Stanton (Pamela), Lanie Sjostedt (Philip), Amy Stanton Reinert, Juliet Casey (Tim); 13 grandchildren; 5 great-grandchildren; siblings, the late Marion Gorham, Geraldine Frantz, Lorraine Palladino and Robert Stanton; and many loved extended family members and friends.

A visitation for Henry will take place from 9:30 a.m. until the start of his funeral Mass at 10:30 a.m. Wednesday, Sept. 4, in Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Church, 235 E. State St., Doylestown. Interment with military honors will follow in Washington Crossing National Cemetery in Newtown.
