| The Wickenburg Sun, Wickenburg, AZ. June 4, 2008, p. A10 Stanley C. Plagens was born in Richmond, Mich., on Dec. 7, 1930 and passed away May 24 in Morristown, Ariz., after a lengthy illness. Stan is survived by his wife of 24 years Dorothy, and eight children - Cindy and Larry Heintz, Ardie and Andrea Plagens, Wayne and Louise Plagens, Kathy and John Svechovsky, Mike and Suzanne DePew, Pat and Janice DePew, Rob and Robin Christie and Bruce Christie. Stan was also blessed with 18 grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. Survivors in Michigan include sisters Aleta, Grace, NaDean and Inez and brother Marvin along with sister-in-law Frances Plagens. Stan was preceded in death by brother Elroy. Stan had many interests and accomplishments in his life. Among them, an interest in farm education and a trucking company with brothers Elroy and Marvin in Michigan. Stan loved to be around machinery of all sorts and was a heavy equipment operator until retirement, and he enjoyed square dancing and country music. After retirement, Stan continued to enjoy square dancing and an unmatched love of gardening. Stan enjoyed gardening to the point that he brought his good soil with him to Morristown from his longtime home in Glendale. Stan also enjoyed taking Dorothy and his RV to rallies around the country where they made many good friends and saw some breathtaking scenery. Stan had a wonderful life and was taken from us much too soon. He will be greatly missed by his family and many friends. In keeping with Stan’s wishes, a small family service has been held and he is interred at Morristown Cemetery. Arrangements are under the direction of Wickenburg Funeral Home and Crematory.
