Aspen JoAnna Stanton

Aspen JoAnna Stanton, age 14 of Cedar Springs, was called home to Heaven on February 13, 2026. Aspen was a ray of sunshine with a joyful, bright spirit who brought happiness wherever she went. She loved being outdoors, especially gardening. Aspen had a heart for helping others and found immense joy in playing the violin and spending time on the pickleball court.

Aspen made friends everywhere she went, connecting easily with people from all walks of life. Her kindness, laughter, and radiant smile left a lasting impression on everyone who knew her. As the sun rises each morning, we will be reminded that she is watching over us, her light forever shining in our hearts.

She will be lovingly remembered by her mother, Christina J. Ware-Stanton; her father, Eric M. Stanton; her sister, Sage W. Stanton; her great-grandparent, Nancy J. Kapaldo; her grandparents, Scott and Debra Ware; her uncle and aunt, Scott and Suzette Ware; her uncle, Randy Sullivan; her uncle, Terry Stanton; and her aunt, Linda Malloy.

A Celebration of Life will be held at 11:00 am, Saturday, March 7 at Rockford Baptist Church, 221 Courtland Street, Rockford, Michigan with Rev. Justin Rowland, officiating. Relatives and friends may meet the family on Saturday at 10:15 am at the church. Those who wish may make memorial contributions to Rockford Baptist Church.
