Stan was a banker at Burn's National Bank in Durango, Colorado Bank and Trust in Delta, and other banks in the area.
He enjoyed hunting, horses, motorcycles, and all outdoor activities. He was a basketball referee and enjoyed watching sports; especially when his kids were involved. He was active in public service with fiesta Days, Elks Club, his church and many other service organizations.
Stan is preceded in death by his son, John William Austin and daughter, Diana Kay Austin. He is survived by the love of his life, Opal Waters, sons Robert (Connie) Austin (Rockwall, TX), Mark (Lori) Austin (Grand Junction, CO), and daughter Connie (Hal) Schoo (Gilbert, AZ). He leaves behind 14 grandchildren and 21 great-grandchildren. Stan also leaves behind numerous friends and family as he never met a stranger.
