In Memory of John Patrick Stanton







In thanksgiving for his love and service to us. We are so grateful for your heroic work in defending the life of the unborn. You are missed and loved. 
- Generation Life


John P. Stanton, 86, who was virtually the guardian angel for the unborn and mothers with unplanned pregnancies in the Delaware Valley for almost 45 years, died Jan. 31.

Even before Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion in the United States, Stanton was active in the pro-life movement and remained so until the very end. He gave witness through prayer at two abortion clinics in the last week of his life.

His funeral will be held Wednesday, Feb. 5, at Immaculate Conception Church in Jenkintown where he was baptized and was a life-long member.
