AUSTIN -- The funeral for Wayne A. Stanton will be at 1:30 p.m. Saturday in First Baptist Church in New Hampton, Iowa. Burial will be in New Hampton Cemetery. Mr. Stanton, 91, of New Hampton, formerly of the Austin area, died Tuesday (Sept. 13, 2005) at Mercy Medical Center in New Hampton.
Wayne Arnold Stanton was born April 12, 1914, in Owatonna. He grew up in the Rose Creek and London areas of Minnesota and attended country school. After his schooling, he farmed with his family. On Dec. 4, 1933, he married Opal Heiny in Austin, and they farmed in the Austin and Lyle area. In 1959, they moved to the New Hampton area and, in 1964, bought a farm west of New Hampton, where he lived since. He farmed, bought and resold cattle, and hauled livestock for area producers. He also helped local 4-H members by hauling their livestock to weigh-ins free of charge. He was a member of the First Baptist Church and served as a deacon and trustee at the church.
