Irving Frederick Stubbendick, 102 of Omaha, formerly of Syracuse, passed away on November 28, 2020 in Omaha, NE. He was born on December 5, 1917 to John & Margaret (Kruse) Stubbendieck. His birth took place in a rural farmhouse near Douglas, NE.

Irving was baptized on January 20, 1918. He graduated from Douglas NE High School in 1935. Irving married Ellen Marie (Winters) on November 30, 1943 at Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Crete, NE.

Irving farmed in the Syracuse Community for many years. In 1954 he bought interest in the Kuenning-Stubbendick Implement. Shortly thereafter Irving bought the entire dealership, and it became Stubbendick Implement Company. He maintained the business until his retirement in late 1971.

Irving had a hard time adjusting to retirement and was asked by the First National Bank of Syracuse, NE to become a loan officer. So in January 1972 Irving went to work at the First National Bank. There he became Vice-President and Agricultural Representative. After Irving's retirement in the bank he was an active member on the bank's board.

Irvings main hobby was playing cards and socializing with people. After moving to Omaha, the important part of his morning was reading his daily scriptures and newspaper. His evenings were spent doing what he enjoyed, playing cards.

Irving is survived by his children, Sharon (David) Dickman of Omaha, NE, Norman (Andrea) Stubbendick of Eastham, MA, Mary Ellen Seavey of Waterloo, IA, 4 granddaughters, 8 grandchildren, sister LeAnna Carr of Lincoln, NE, also many nieces, nephews and friends.
