William Dennis Stouder was born to William H. and Edna Mae Stouder (nee Peck) on January 28, 1943, in Cincinnati, Ohio. His siblings, born a few years later are Gary L. and Terry G. Stouder. Until Dennis was about 7, the family lived in the Greater Cincinnati area. Because of his father's job, Dennis lived in many places throughout southeastern and middle Ohio. Finally the family settled in Loveland, Ohio, in 1955. Dennis graduated from Loveland High School in 1961, and in the fall he entered the University of Cincinnati. Unhappy with the guidance he was receiving regarding course selection, Dennis dropped out of U.C., enrolled at Miami University part-time, and took a job at St. Columban School teaching seventh grade. In 1966 Dennis was hired to teach junior high English and social studies St. Michael School in Sharonville, Ohio, where he remained until 1998. While Dennis was at St. Mike's he received his undergraduate degree from Miami in 1971 and later his master's in secondary administration in 1980. Dennis leaves behind his brothers Gary L. (Glenda) and Terry G. (LaDonna), several nieces and nephews the many friends he made while working at St. Mike's and also at Kenwood McAlpin's where he worked part-time for nearly 12 years. Family suggests memorial contributions be directed to the American Cancer Society.
