Stephanie Marrie Petty was born Dec. 13, 1978, to Art and Carla (Sands) Petty in Miles City, Mont. Her life started in Montana but she came to life when her family moved to Custer, S.D.
It is in Custer where she made her home and had the opportunity to touch the lives of so many of the members of the community.   In her early years she was able to develop quite a personality and a resilient spirit right along with it. She made it look so easy to find a way into your heart and once she was there you didn’t want to let her go.

Robert Lee “Bob“ Devers will forever be remembered for his sense of humor, incorrigible orneriness and feisty nature. Often only hindered by the conventions of society, Bob lived a life of contradictions often wild and without regard. He lived his life on his own terms, yet still being compassionate and caring of others, providing comfort, support, wisdom and guidance to those in need.
Bob was an avid reader, loved spaghetti westerns, loved cats and was a connoisseur of music. He was a scholar of life, an eloquent writer, poet and a master of music trivia.
