Darwin Howard Stanton, age 55, of Delton, went home to be with his Lord and Savior on Saturday, Dec. 5, 2020.
Darwin was born on November 30, 1965 in Kalamazoo to Norman and Arlene Stanton. As a child, Darwin was a true farm kid and was involved in both FFA and 4H. He graduated from Hastings High School in 1984 where he was on the wrestling team. Darwin was a faithful employee at BJ Hydraulics for over 20 years working as a Hydrostatic Technician. He and his family are longtime members of Cedar Creek Bible Church.
In his free time, Darwin had a laid-back personality and enjoyed hunting and camping with his family and dogs on the custom bus that he made. His true passion was collecting and repairing old antique clocks.
Darwin was very proud of his children and their accomplishments, such as his son attending the University of Michigan and receiving many scholarships.
Darwin will be missed by his loving wife, Doreen (Boulter) Stanton; children, Slater Stanton, Glorianna Stanton; parents, Norman and Arlene Stanton; siblings, Phyllis (Jim) Dipp, Gordon (Deb) Stanton, Bernard (Donah) Stanton, John (DeAnna) Stanton, Maxine (Tom) Henney; several nieces and nephews.
