Stanley A. Petkosek, born 3-13-1944, passed away on December 8, 2020 after a long battle with Parkinson's. He is survived by his wife, Gwen of 49 years, three children, Jody Blasdell, Jeffrey Blasdell, Rodney Desoto, six grandchildren, one great grandson, sister Diana Graham and brother Richard Petkosek.
Stan was born in Painsville, Ohio and served in the Vietnam War for four years, after high school. He then moved to Conroe/Montgomery Texas to become an avid horseman, land salesman, home builder and successful entrepreneur. He loved the outdoors and cooking on his grill. He showed his quarter horses in the Houston Rodeo circuit for multiple years.
He was a strong, reserved, hard man who spoke very few words but taught the family values and the merits of good honest hard work. He will be remembered and missed by us all.
Our celebration of his life will be held privately at home.
