Steve Stancin
Stephen (Steve) Dayton
Stancin passed away unex-
pectedly on March 27, 2015, in
Clearlake, Calif., at the young
age of 62. Steve was born in
Hood River,
Ore., to Steve
and Clarice
Stancin on
March 7, 1953.
He grew up in
Parkdale on
Trout Creek
Ridge and at-
Steve Stancin t e n d e d
schools in the
Hood River Valley.
After school, Steve joined
the Army in 1970 and was sta-
tioned in Fort Carson, Colo.,
for the bulk of his enlistment.
He served honorably for three
years and returned to Hood
River where he worked for Di-
amond Fruit as a lift truck op-
erator.
In 1988, Steve moved to An-
chorage, Alaska, where he
met his sweetie of the last 25
years, Rosalie Tripp. They
moved to the Clearlake area
in 1994 and soon after, Steve
went to work at the Robinson
Rancheria Casino as a custo-
dian. After 15 years, Steve left
his job and enjoyed retire-
ment until his death.
Over the many years in the
Clearlake area, Steve made
many friends and greatly en-
joyed the large family he
joined with Rosalie. His con-
stant good humor and smiling
face, along with his Jeff Gor-
don hat and tee-shirt, will al-
ways be remembered as a
Steve Stancin trademark.
Steve was a good and kind
soul that died too soon and
will be sorely missed by all.
Steve is survived by his
sweetie and constant compan-
ion, Rosalie Tripp; sister and
brother-in-law, Ginny and
Don Bland, of Portland, Ore.;
