Stanley R. Brones, 94, of St. Ansgar, Iowa, died on Thursday, February 21, 2008 at the Good Samaritan Center, St. Ansgar.

Stanley Roland Brones was born in Forest City, Iowa on December 18, 1913, one of nine children born to Nathan and Molina (Felland) Brones.

He met Vergil (Vergie) Christensen, also of Forest City, and they were married on January 18, 1933, and recently celebrated their 75th Anniversary.

Stan and Vergie farmed the Brones farm until 1936. At that time they moved to the St. Ansgar area and farmed until retirement in 1978 and moved into St. Ansgar.

They enjoyed traveling and visited all the states except Alaska. When their daughter Jan and family moved to Arizona, they started spending winters in the Mesa area until just recently.

Stan enjoyed fishing and in the mid 70's bought a cabin at Lake Lizzie near Pine River, MN. For over 20 years they would spend their summers at the cabin enjoying the company of family and friends.

After retiring, Stan joined Vergie in gardening and canning. Even as recently as last summer they put in a garden and canned Vergie's favorite spice pickles and beet pickles.

Stan was preceded in death by his parents, Molina and Nathan Brones, brothers Archie, Harold, Lyle, and Palmer, and sisters Gladys, Alfa, and Margaret. Surviving is his beloved wife Vergie, daughter Jan and husband Morrie of Mesa AZ, grandson Jeff and wife Shawn, and great-grandchildren Cody and Deanna of Camp Verde, AZ. One sister, Mildred Hoeft of Belmond, IA.
