Stan was born in Enid, Oklahoma to Charles Leroy Marlatt and Patsy Ellen (Palmer) Marlatt on Friday, August 28, 1953, at the Enid Memorial Hospital (now what is Integris Health Center) by Dr. Lillian Robison, the oldest of the three children. In our dad's earlier years he had played baseball for the Cleveland Indians (Guardians) with their Triple A team. One of dad's all time favorites and MLB greats was Stan Musiel, and dad named Stanley after him. Stan went to be with his Lord on Monday, October 28, 2024, at The Common's in Enid, Oklahoma, due to circulatory issues and complications from gangrene in the lower extremities.
He lived all of his life in the Enid and Ringwood areas. He went to elementary school at Coolidge Grade School, Junior High at Longfellow Jr. High, Sophomore year at Enid High School, graduating from Ringwood High School with the class of 1971, and attended 2 years at Phillips University in Enid. While in school he was active in F.F.A., baseball, football, basketball, and annual year book staff. The family moved to Ringwood in the spring of 1969 to Stan's maternal great grandparents centennial homestead and lived there the remainder of his life, until health issues caused him to need constant care and not able to live alone, thus he moved into The Commons and had been there for the last years.
In 1992 he married Debra Duggan. They built a custom house together on his great grandparents centennial farm and it was always his pride and joy. Together they had several custom features built into the home. Shortly after they divorced and had no children together.
When the Senior Class of 1971 was working on their annual, Stan's hand was voted to be used for the annual picture displaying their senior rings. Stan was very proud of that moment and would tell a story about it. In his early life there was many stories to be told about his two vehicles that he was widely known for. One was a red and black (hottest and fastest we were told) Pontiac GTO, and the other favorite was his Ford black and silver pickup he named Silver. We heard lots of stories that we can't put in print.
In his younger years, Stan worked custom harvesting, (traveling from Texas to the Dakota's), farming and ranching with several family members. Later in life Stan went to work for Joe Flaming at the Napa store on Willow in Enid as a sales representative. Stan truly found his calling at the Napa store. He loved being a sales representative, he loved his co-workers, the clients he serviced, and meeting all the people. When health issues forced him to take early retirement, he never gave up the hope that one day he would get to go back to work at Napa.
Fall was his favorite time of year. He loved the autumn colors and foods. He always enjoyed having family and good friends in his home for the holidays, meals, and story telling conversations. Stan looked forward to having his sisters decorate his house for the holidays. Some of his favorite foods were his famous pumpkin bread, pumpkin pie, and deer chili.
Even though Stan never attended a regular church service, Stan would read his bible and study it. He believed in the Lord and his teachings and was quite fluent in his bible.
Some of his favorite things to do was hunting, fishing, ATV riding trails in the Colorado rockies, was an avid gun collector, gun educator, reloading ammo guru and anything outdoors. He loved the outdoors and anything God created. There are so many wonderful and great stories (and some stories we don't dare repeat) about all these favorite things he loved to do that will live forever in his family and good friends' hearts and memories.
Stan is survived by two sisters: Robin and spouse Harold Webber, Renea McCray of Ringwood, Niece Bobbi and spouse Brent Benson and children Luke, Makenzie, and Bryson of Hartville, MO, Nephew Bo and spouse Jami McCray and children Jaycee, Baylee, Sophee, and Codee McCray of Ringwood; a host of cousins, other family, and special friends.
Stan is preceded in death by his parents, maternal and paternal grandparents, a host of aunts and uncles, cousins, and friends.
The family would like to extend a special appreciation and thank you to the doctors, the Commons, Tradition Hospice, staff, and very special friends that took wonderful care of Stan during this stressing and difficult time.
Instead of flowers, the family request any Memorial donations be sent to Henniger-Hinson Funeral Home to help with Funeral Expenses. We thank everyone for the support, prayers, and special acts of kindness showed to Stan and his family. It may not have stopped the inevitable, but made it easier to cope and bear with life's uncertainties.
Memorials in Stanley's name can be made through the funeral home.
