Today my Gramps passed, at 93 years old, at home with his daughters.
His life story is one of hard work and devotion. He was devoted to this nation, a dedicated family man, and a person of principle. Part of this nation's "greatest generation," he grew up in Leavenworth, WA. He married his high school sweetheart, my Nana. He served our country in times of war, with my Nana's support at home.
They raised four beautiful girls, including my lovely mother. He worked for Boeing, helping build it into something that served as a job and infrastructure provider for the whole area in his time there. He is survived by his daughters, his grandchildren, his great grandchildren and his girlfriend, Claire. He is loved; we will all miss him.
Sending love to my mother and her sisters today.
- Granddaughter Elisha

Stan (Dean to our family) was like a Brother to me. Dean and Beth were going together when I was in grade school. He lived a couple of blocks away and was at the house a lot. They would baby site and of course I would give them a lot of guff. Dean and Beth went out to lunch and dinner with us and we would exchange our condos. Both Merle and I will miss them. Iam sure they will live in Heaven together
