Stan graduated from Fowlerville High School and remembered fondly the teachers who encouraged his love of learning. He retired in 2015 after 50 years of dedicated service at IBM.
Stan enjoyed trying to keep up with his expanding family and always had a big smile after talking with them. He also enjoyed fixing things, music, gardening, and watching Jeopardy.
Surviving Stan are his wife of 45 years, Joanne; daughters Sandra Maleitzke, Deborah Carter, DeeDee (Rob) Reno, Jill Steininger; and son Mark (Melody) Maleitzke; 12 grandchildren; 11 great-grandchildren; sisters Connie Coon and Sherry (Mike) Higgins; and brother Gordon (Sue) Maleitzke.
Stan was preceded in death by his parents and his sisters Phyllis Maleitzke and Judy Devine.
Funeral services will be in Fowlerville, Michigan.
The family welcomes donations to St. John’s Lutheran Church in Fowlerville, MI, as an expression of sympathy instead of flowers.
