Stanley Rodney Goldade was born on May 20, 1957. He was the 4th of 12 children born to Aloysius and Charlotte (TePoel) Goldade.

Most of Stan’s early years were spent on the farm 4 miles west of Timber Lake. He attended the Holy Cross School and graduated from Timber Lake High School in 1976. After graduation Stan married Rhonda Weaver. They had three children: Tabatha, Greg, and Heather. They later divorced. In May of 1982 Stan married Connie Chalmers. Two children were born to this union: Lori and Grant. They were together for 44 years.

Stan wore many different hats throughout his life, long haul trucker, cheese plant worker, cattle/sheep rancher and construction. He built several beautiful houses in and around Aberdeen before moving to commercial construction. However, Stan’s best job was being a husband and dad.

Eventually Stan and Connie decided to leave Aberdeen and moved to Lowry. Stan started SRG Construction, specializing in roofing, siding, and home remodels. Most summers were spent haying and working. Winters were spent feeding cows and helping with calving in the spring. Bottle lambs and calves were usually around too. Although he cussed them out, he took it personally if one died.

Stan was dedicated to family, friends, and coworkers. He may not have always agreed with them, but he cared for everyone in his own way.

Stan will be deeply missed by his wife, Connie, children, Tabatha (Brian) Rozzano, Roy, WA, Greg (Teri) Dachtler, Heather (Larry) Lee, Madison, SD, Lori Goldade, Grant (Katie) Aberdeen, SD, grandchildren, Cedric (Ryanne) Connor, Eli, Hunter, Trenton, Tatum (Chris), Taylor (Tori), Riley, Issac, Grady, Taelyn, great grandson, Alexander, brothers, Thomas, Ray, David (Barb), Daniel (Diane), Gerald (Kathy), Steven (Mary) and Robert (Lorissa), sisters, Trish Ewer, Charlene (Rodney) Werkmeister, and Michelle Saravia, mother-in-law, Mary Chalmers, brother and sister-in-law, Cathy (Lee) Reinert and numerous nieces and nephews.
