Obituary for Howard Lee Stahlecker
Howard Lee Stahlecker, 67, passed away suddenly on Sunday, December 27, 2020 at his home. He will be deeply missed by all.
Howard was born in Burlington, CO on September 11, 1953. His Castleford roots grew quickly after moving to Idaho early on in life. Castleford held a special place in Howard’s heart.
He married Jeannie Hart in 1974. In April of 1975, he welcomed his only son, Michael. Later on, he married Selena Howard in 1994. He opened his arms to two children, Chris and Amy Meierhoff.
Howard had three passions in life - custom farming with his brother, Wayne, watching and supporting his grandkids, and camping and being outdoors with his son and family. Howard raised Holstein heifers on his farm in Castleford and loved every minute of being outside with them. He spent his leisure time attending soccer games and football games, any chance to go out and support his grandkids. He was an amazing grandpa. His grandkids were his pride and joy. He just recently met his first great grandson, which brought plenty of joy to Howard. The latter part of Howard’s life was spent camping in the mountains with Mike. He loved being outdoors and spending time with family.
He is survived by his sister Sharon (Jack) Power of Las Vegas, NV, his brother, Wayne (Linda) Stahlecker of Filer, ID, and a niece and nephew.
Howard leaves behind his wife Selena Stahlecker, his son, Michael (Becki) Stahlecker, stepson, Chris Meierhoff, stepdaughter, Amy Meierhoff, seven grandkids, Jennifer, Bailee, Kolton, Kaleb, Ethan, Zach, and Alexis; one great-grandson, Brexton; niece, Lynette Stahlecker, and a nephew, Gary Stahlecker. .
