Jack Clifford Stone

Jack Clifford Stone passed through the veil in Pocatello, Idaho, on Friday April 10, 2026, into the arms of our Savior, Jesus Christ, and loving members of his family and special friends who have gone before.

Jack was born September 29, 1936, in Aberdeen, Idaho, to Clifford Edgar and Hilva LeeMaude Willey Stone. He was the fifth of eight children. He attended school in Sterling, Springfield, Snake River and graduated from Aberdeen as the VFW outstanding student in 1954. He lettered in football all 4 years of high school and was a member of Tiger Club.

When he graduated from high school he had a herd of 50 cattle and planned on ranching, but instead he volunteered for the draft in December, 1954 (Korean War.) He was stationed mostly at Ft. Knox, Kentucky where he taught tank mechanics and tank maneuvers.

In October, 1956, he married his high school sweetheart, Patricia Rae Pitts. They lived in Kentucky until Jack finished his enlistment in December, 1956. A return to Idaho found no employment in Southeast Idaho so off they went to Southern California where Jack was employed to take care of a fleet of 35 box trucks and cars for Thrifty d Lux Dry Cleaners. While in Los Angeles their first two children, Teri Rae and Juli Ann were born.

In 1960 the family moved back to Idaho and Jack was employed as a mechanic for the Chevrolet dealership in American Falls for 5 years. During this time two more children, Lori Sue and Lance Edgar, were born to the family and it was complete.

In 1965, Jack opened his own business in American Falls, Conoco Corner. This was a service station and automobile repair shop. He ran this successful business for 5 years. One day the director of Idaho State University School of Technology came to see Jack at the station and asked him to come and teach at ISU in the Automotive Technology Program. After much hemming and hawing back and forth, the family decided to accept the offer, but stayed in American Falls running the business with help for one more year. Jack decided he enjoyed hands-on teaching very much and the family moved to Pocatello, after selling the business, and settled in the area around the corner from Highland High School.

Jack’s 29 teaching years were very rewarding for him. Along the way he worked on his Bachelor of Science – Vocational Teacher Education degree, graduating in 1992. He was the faculty representative for Vocational Industrial Clubs of America and took many students to competitions around the country and also to international competitions. One of his greatest joys was when a former student would come up to him and strike up a conversation about classroom and shop experiences. Jack went to many General Motors, Ford and American Motors workshops to keep his teaching ahead of the game. During this period Jack and Pat unofficially adopted Ronald and Helena Schindler, and the Schindler family became a part of the Stone Heritage. He retired in 1999 as Instructor Emeritus.

Jack was a convert to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He held many positions – teacher, group leader, high councilor, scoutmaster, ward and stake missionary, temple worker, etc. He and Pat were sealed in the Idaho Falls Temple in 1962. They served 6 missions together after retirement: Nauvoo, Adam-ondi-Ahman, 3 times at Martin’s Cove and 1 at home when they were caring for Pat’s mother.

He loved to garden, tinker, solve complicated problems – especially regarding cars, cook and serve his fellowman. He was famously known as The Neighborhood Cookie Monster. A true Renaissance Man, he could fix or build anything! Above all, he loved and was proud of his family – they were his treasure. And he loved our Savior and was very close to Him.

Jack was pre-deceased by his parents, Pat’s parents, brothers: Gordon Edgar, Stephen Rodger, Donald Willey (Linda), sister: Geraldine Blakeslee. Brother-in-law Ronald Allyn Pitts (Cheryle.) He is survived by his children: Teri Rae, Juli Ann, Lori Sue Sorenson (Tim), Lance Edgar (Marcia) and Ronald and Helena Schindler; grandchildren: Brooke Hager (Ryan,) Bryn Preuss (Jesse,) Bryan (Christie,) Natasha Annette and Alyssa Nicole Stone, Lex (Stephanie) and Drew (Julianne) Schindler; great-grandchildren: Caitlin, Cayden and Keegan Stone, Dillon and Declan Preuss, and Avery and Addison Schindler. Siblings: Jay Dee, Charles Allen (Joan,) and Lynda Susan Wrigley. And many nieces and nephews.

The family would like to thank all who have helped Jack through this long illness – you know who you are. He so much appreciated your visits, treats and help with projects he could no longer do. Thanks also to his many doctors, nurses, therapists and caregivers. Jack did not want a funeral. There will be a viewing at Manning- Wheatley Funeral Home in Pocatello, Wednesday evening April 15, 2026 from 6-8:30pm and graveside services at the Aberdeen, ID Cemetery Thursday April 16, 2026 at 11am with military honors.

Dorothy Ann Mae Ryder

Dorothy Ann Mae Beck was born November 7, 1937 to Dolly Mae Hopkins and Marvin D Beck in Spokane Washington. She passed March 25, 2026

She lived with her aunt after her parents passed away when she was young.

She graduated from Rathdrum High school in 1956. She married husband Kenneth. They had two beautiful boys, Michael Gene Ryder born June 8,1958 and Mark Alan Ryder born August 31, 1959. As if taking care of two baby boys wasn't enough, she also ran an adult foster care for 12 years, worked for Mary Kay for 7 years and she also worked at the senior citizens building in Pocatello for about 17 years.

Some of her passions other than selling makeup and skin care products to beautiful ladies and caring for others were working and being involved in the Grange in Oregon and in Pocatello she was labeled the worthy master of Portneuf Grange in Pocatello.

She was a very bright soul in this world she lived her life to the fullest. Her smile and her presence always lit up a room and moments with her were never the dullest. She was an incredible lady, a loving mother, a caring grandmother and an amazing great granny, she was always so thoughtful, sweet, funny, caring, kind, and just uncanny. For those who don't know what uncanny is it means being beyond what is normal or expected or in other words superhuman which is what she was to us. And for that we thank God for that gift from above. We are sad to see her leave, and we bid her loving Fair well, and hope she greets us when we all are able to hear our final bell. So, until we meet at the pearly gates just know we will always remember you as one of the greatest.

She is survived by nephew Robert Beck, niece Cindy McNamee, Daughter in law Melanie, granddaughters Shasta and Nickcole, grandsons Jared Steven Riley and great grandkids Aj Ayden Anthony Hadley Olivia Micah Jazper Zaniyah Ayanna Lenix Jesiray Paisley Taylen.

Martell Vance Gunter

Martell Vance Gunter, 84, of McCammon, Idaho peacefully passed away in his home Thursday afternoon, March 12, 2026 following an extended illness. He was born on April 18, 1941, in Pocatello, Idaho to Zeb Vance and Rebecca Capell Gunter.

Martell was an Idaho boy through and through. He loved the outdoors, especially the mountains, pine trees, canyons, and hunting. He was a crack shot rifleman known for his marksmanship and has numerous big game trophy mounts to attest to that fact.

An opportunity was presented to become an apprentice printer at the McCammon News shop just across the street from the Gunter home. He accepted the offer and thus began his life-long vocation in the printing industry. This was back in the days of the hot metal process of printing and hand-set type for ads and headlines. A printer had to learn to read upside down and backwards.

Following graduation from Marsh Valley High School in 1959 and what was then Idaho State College Vo-Tech Print School, he worked at various job shops and weekly newspapers including the Wyoming State Journal in Lander, Wyoming; the Power County Press in American Falls; The Caribou County Sun in Soda Springs; the Blackfoot News, Gateway Printes, and finally the Idaho State Journal where he clocked in for 38 years, retiring in 2003.

During the summer of 1961, Martell was employed by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game on Kodiak Island as a stream guard. He was responsible to protect the spawning salmon by keeping commercial fisherman away from the outlets of creeks and streams. Martell grew to love Alaska with its rugged beauty and excellent hunting and fishing opportunities. He returned numerous times to enjoy both sports.

On January 19, 1962, he married Jill Rowe in the Logan Utah LDS Temple. That day marked the beginning of the blizzard of the century. It turned out to be a good omen rather than a tragedy, for the Gunters enjoyed 64 years of married life. They are the parents of four sons: Ralph, Scott, Matthew, and Russell.

Martell was a lifelong active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and served in many different callings including Bishop, Stake President, Temple Ordinance Worker, and missionary in the Minneapolis, Minnesota Mission with his wife.

Martell is survived by his four sons and wives, Ralph and Valerie Price Gunter, Scott and Elaine Ottesen Gunter, Matt and Erika Babb Gunter, and Russell and Hallie Telford Gunter. He is also survived by his sister Nadine Gunter Marlow, brother-in-law Jay Marlow, sister-in-law Janet Gunter, 18 grandchildren, 19 great-grandchildren, and numerous nieces and nephews whom he loved and held dear in his heart.

He was preceded in death by both parents, his sister Joan Paradis, his brother Gary Gunter, a brother-in-law Terry Peterson, a daughter-in-law Natalie Hall Gunter, a grandson Dawson M. Gunter, and a great-grandson Ryker Zane Marley.

Funeral Services will be held at noon on Thursday, March 19, 2026 at the McCammon Stake Center. A viewing will be held from 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. on Wednesday, the 18th, as well an hour before the service Thursday morning.
