The Ionia Sentinel-Standard, Tuesday, June 19, 2007


It is with great sadness that the family of Terry Stanton announces his 
passing on June 10, 2007, at the age of 62. 

Terry will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 41 years, Mary Jo, and their 
children, Jami Stanton, Jodi (Brad) Nash, Terry (Susan) Stanton, Chris 
(Stacey) Stanton. Terry will also be fondly remembered by his seven 
grandchildren, Zachery, Meghan, Allie, Nikole, Chloe, Andru and Elizabeth. 
Terry was predeceased by his mother and father, Donald and Emma Jean Stanton. 

Terry was born on October 6, 1944, a native of Ionia, Michigan. He attended 
Ferris State University, graduating with a degree in accounting. Terry worked 
for The Dow Chemical Company for 27 years in positions that took him and his 
family from Michigan to Ohio, to Texas and back to Midland. Upon leaving Dow 
Chemical, Terry became a partner in Omni Tech Intl. Limited. In retirement, he 
started his own company, The Stanton Group, which actively holds real estate 
investments around the country. 

Terry was a “Midlander”, committing countless hours to his real passion, 
serving the public youth through sport. Terry was a Midland Amateur Sports 
Hall of Fame member and inductee, enshrined for his founding work for the 
Midland Soccer Club. He also was instrumental in bringing soccer into the 
Midland Public School system. Terry was an active member of the Midland 
Amateur Sports Capital Committee and was a member of the Noon Rotary Club. He 
truly believed in the humanitarian service the Rotary Club provides in the 
Midland area. 

A celebration of Terry's life will be held at 11 a.m., Thursday, June 21, 2007 
from the First United Methodist Church. Rev. Dr. Brent McCumons will 
officiate. Terry's family will receive friends at the Ware-Smith-Woolever 
Funeral Home, 1200 West Wheeler Street on Wednesday from 4 to 7 p.m. and at 
the church on Thursday from 10 a.m. until time of service. Terry was the 
recipient of a kidney transplant 19 years ago. Therefore, the family requests 
that memorial donations be made to Great Lakes Renal Home Dialysis or the 
Kidney Foundation.
