Biography
David L. Stanton was born October 24, 1928 in rural Plains, Kansas, to Vernon and Julia Bond Stanton. David graduated from Plains High School, Friends University (Wichita, Kansas) and received his masters at Asbury Theological Seminary, Wilmore, Kentucky.
David was a farmer, crop duster, school teacher and as a vocalist enjoyed a singing career which took him throughout the U.S. and Caribbean. He taught vocal music in the school system of Lindenhurst (Long Island), New York where he met his wife Karen Razey also teaching in that school system. Karen died July 23, 2011. His varied career also included working as a piano tuner and technician on Long Island, and in Nevada and Kansas as well as teaching flight school in Nevada.
He returned to Kansas in 1963 to help his father operate the farm northwest of Plains and continued in that endeavor until his retirement. A commercial pilot, aviation was one of his great loves and his various charity work included flying donated clothing to Oklahoma native American reservations. During his last year of life he was asked by his doctor how long he wanted to live to which he replied, “at least long enough to vote for Trump, twice.”
Both David and Karen Stanton are buried in the Plains Cemetery, Plains, Kansas.
