Stanley B. Dudick

Stanley B. Dudick, 72, of Lewistown, went to be with his Lord and Savior on Tuesday, Sept. 1, 2026.

Born Nov. 29, 1953, in Lewistown, he was the son of the late Stanley and Charlotte (Lantz) Dudick. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his sisters, Shirley Bulick and Donna Bratton.

Stanley is survived by his beloved daughter, Savannah McCoy and her husband, Kenneth Jr., of Lewistown; his siblings, Wanda Stuter, of McClure, Betty Yocum, of Lewistown, Merle Kauffman and his wife, JoAnn, of Burnham, Kay Rupp, of Reedsville, Gwen Keith and her husband, James, of Lewistown, Cindy Yoder, of Lewistown, and Dianne Taylor and her husband, Scot, of Lewistown; and his four cherished grandchildren, whom he adored dearly.

For many years, Stanley was employed as a delivery driver for Lewistown Welding, where he eventually retired. He was a familiar and friendly presence at the Juniata Valley YMCA, where he especially enjoyed playing pickleball alongside his friends. A talented musician, Stanley found great joy in both playing his guitar and sharing his gift of song with others.

He also treasured the simple moments spent outdoors, particularly fishing with his grandchildren. Those times together created memories that will remain close to their hearts and serve as a lasting reminder of the love he had for his family.

Above all, Stanley was a loyal and devoted family man who took great pride in the people he loved. His spirit, musical talent, friendship, and genuine love for his family will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

A memorial service will be held at 11 a.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 9, 2026, at King-Barr Funeral Home, 120 Logan Street, Lewistown, with Rev. John Walters officiating. A visitation will be held at the funeral home from 10 a.m. until time of service.
