It was at Bethel College that Stan met Annette, his wife of 47 years, they married 14 months later on April 22, 1978.

It was impossible to tell where his ART position ended and his military duty started.

Stan loved his time serving his country in the USAF but if you asked him, he would tell you that his favorite job title was GRANDPA! When asked if he had a favorite grandchild: "No, you can't have a favorite. I love them all!"

Stan enjoyed reading, computer games, woodworking/carving (but not so much the home repair/remodeling projects Annette had for him to do), hiking, biking, snowshoeing, and spending time with his 6 grandchildren.
