And Elaine Stroo, Stroo Funeral Home, Inc. has established a reputation for providing personalized, compassionate service offered at a reasonable price, a reputation that Bob Stroo and Mike Vos strive to maintain. Through the years the community has grown and expanded considerably. With that growth the funeral home continued to grow also, and additional facility space became necessary. In 1986, the chapel was enlarged and the entire facility was redecorated. In 1998, the Stroo family moved from their funeral home residence to a condominium.

Ethan graduated from Ten Broeck Academy and worked various jobs after graduation including Bradley Tree Services, Holiday Valley, Julies Pizza, and Blooms Flooring. Ethan loved being outdoors, fishing, kayaking, snowboarding, going to concerts, and loved animals, especially his dog Jemma.
Keeping the farm in good shape required a myriad of maintenance skills, tools and equipment, as well as lots of time and energy. During the years on the farm (which featured a 100-year-old farmhouse, indoor and outdoor riding arenas, two large barns with stalls and a few other outbuildings), Ken relished his caretaking role. Whether it was mowing the pastures, repairing fence boards, helping to bring in the horses, or trailering someone’s horse to the vet or a show, he was always ready to assist. With nearly 30 years of involvement in the horse community, several terrific people entered Connie and Ken’s lives, many of whom are still close friends today. We are grateful to one good friend in particular, Roger Bast, who helped Ken keep the farm in good running order on numerous occasions.
He is also survived by Kerry’s children AJ, Katelynn, and Dominique Drake and several nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his brother Derry Drake and his sister Betsy Teeple.
