Stanton L. Priske

   


I feel a deep loss, as Stan was one of the best people I have ever known, not only as a business associate, but as a dear friend. Sincerely, Ted Katzmark

Oh Karen and family - this picture is exactly like we remember Stan. We were able to spend many of those outdoor times with him at field trials. I will always remember how he would complain bitterly about the order he had to run his dog if he was not happy with it. That was his competitive spirit speaking. I would just let it bounce off my back. We are terribly sorry you have lost him. Sixty-nine is too early. Our prayers are with you.

Sorry for your loss of Stan. Bill advised me by Email. Last time I saw you was in 1962 at your wedding. (You were a very pretty bride.) Sad to say we have lost so many since that year. Both you and Stan, are to be commended for your long term marriage.

Karen - I am so sorry about Stan. It was always such a treat to see both of you "in the day" when we were "out and about". He will be missed by a lot of people.

Karen, It is not often that one can say another person so influenced their life that it actually changed. Stan changed my life by introducing me to dogs, hunting, fishing and the many people who became my friends as a result. For that I shall always owe a debt of gratitude and appreciation. Ledith and I send you our love and we are so sorry for the loss of Stan. Roman

I will be leaving to go out of town and I regret that I will miss the funeral services on Saturday. Stan certainly was a man’s man. I thoroughly enjoyed his company whether it was golfing, arguing sports or politics, or having a cocktail after work. Stan thoroughly enjoyed his Sundays with Mike, Kirk and Fran. These guys played so hard against each other, you would have thought there was a million dollars on the line. Truth be told, they were only playing for a couple of bucks, but they sure went after it. Stan was a great man. My condolences to Karen, Todd and the family. Stan will be greatly missed. Dave Thinnes

P., I was such a young girl when I met Stanton Lee and I remember thinking he has to be one of the coolest guys there is! To this day I've never met anyone quite like him, always a man's man, full of life, always made me laugh. I'll always remember how he looked at you with so much love in his eyes, he was so proud of you. I love you P. Diana

So sorry to hear of the loss of Stan. I first meet Stan while training dogs. We (Kenny, Gary, Leonard & Jack) will miss the fun times we had at Gammon Lake. Hope Karen will continue coming to the cabin. We would miss her potato salad and ice cream. Stan will be missed but not nearly as much as he will be remembered.

To Stan's Family, I was a young child when I last saw Stan (and he was, too) but we were cousins and lost touch many, many years ago. I'm so happy to know he was so loved in life and I send much love and many prayers to all of you in this time of sadness and loss. Many blessings, Cathy

Karen and Family...I had the privilege of meeting Stan late in life as I have been hunting with Stan the last 10 years or so. Whether in the duck blind or turkey woods, Stan was wonderful gentleman who I truly enjoyed spending time with. I will miss his scouting reports, phone calls, trips to Oklahoma and time spent together. My thoughts are with you and family.

I was so shocked and saddened to hear of Stan's passing - as you know, we both came from Eldora, going to the same church and are the same age - I will never forget Stan's comment when he came to the hospital to visit our son, Tim, who was very small at birth - "oh, he has his eyes open" (no, Stan, they aren't like kittens) - after moving to CR, we reconnected a few times through his business - the video is so good and brings back many early memories - may the Lord give you peace and strength as you deal with your loss - Lynnette Butler Scheetz

Karen and family, Stan was one of the greatest friends one could have. Most of my wonderful memories were the time that I worked and played with Stan. Stan was the best advertising man that I ever knew and he did fantastic ads for Vigortone so this was one of reasons we were so successful. The world was a better place with Stan in it and he will be missed by all of us. Goodby my friend, trusting golf, hunting and fishing will be great where ever you land. Dick

Karen, I worked for Stan at his agency for 5 1/2 years after I had just graduated from college. He always amazed me with his priorities and incredible focus. My condolences to you and your sons. Judy
