Stanley was born to Vance and Ruth Worth of rural Mondamin, IA. Stan was a 4th generation horticulturalist in the Loess Hills of Harrison County. His great-grandfather, W.T. Worth planted the first apple orchard in the area in 1895. Stan attended Klondike country school until 1949. Stan’s mom, Ruth, became his teacher, after he wore out his K-2nd grade teacher. Several of his elementary report cards attest to his unwillingness to conduct himself properly. This should be no surprise to all who knew him. Stan graduated from Magnolia High School on May 20, 1958, where he participated in band, FFA, drama, and declam. He joined 4-H where he continued his family legacy by planting his own orchard and working in the fruit business.
After graduation he worked several different jobs trying to find his niche. He worked at the telephone company, an insurance salesman (door to door), carpenter, and then back to the orchards. In 1960 he married, the marriage Crystol and Lance were born. e fulfilled his bucket list by building and drag racing his beloved cars “Red Delicious” and “Sleepur”. In his later years he enjoyed going to classic car shows with his, “1963½ Ford Galaxie” always accompanied by his family and friends, with many good times and stories to be told.
Stan and Jeanne married on January 19, 1974. Today would have been their 45th wedding anniversary. From this union came, Joshua, Erica, and Jennifer. So many trials and tribulations and many, many awesome memories from their life in rural Kennard, NE. Stan retired from Allstate Insurance as a claims adjuster on May 20, 2005. A surprise celebration was held with over 200 family and friends in attendance. After retirement he was employed by Woodhouse Ford as a car courier, transporting high price vehicles all around the United States. In 2012 they sold their acreage and built a home in rural Bennington. He then worked for Baxter Performance until he opted to stay at home to care for his grandson, Jordan.
Stan had a love for his family and friends that was unmeasurable. He was very proud of his garden and yard. He was always sharing his gardening knowledge and bounty and with his neighbors.
