Read More	John Myrick Stacy, 60, Bittinger, Maryland, lived a life full of adventure, beginning with his childhood in Silver Spring, and an enlistment in the United States Marine Corps. He served two tours of duty in Vietnam that began on the first day of the Tet Offensive in 1968. His second tour, which began in the spring of 1969, saw his unit capturing Russian Howitzers and exposing Russian involvement in arming the Viet Cong. Following his honorable military service to his country, John returned to the family's plumbing and heating business, A.A. Stacy & Son, founded in 1907 by his great uncle. John later relocated it, along with his family, to Garrett County and led the family business through its 100th year of operation in 2007. On April 6, 2008, with his daughters by his side, John passed into his next great adventure with the faith that those he lost before would be waiting to greet him, including his parents Erle M. Stacy and Virginia Kate (Myrick) Stacy Beitzel, stepfather Gorman D. Beitzel, son-at-heart Dale Leatherwood, cousin Billy Stacy, one aunt, and one stepsister. He is celebrated and greatly missed by two daughters ; son-in-law; two grandchildren; one brother; one nephew; one niece; former wife Vivian and family; one uncle, two aunts, and their families; and an extended and cherished family gifted through his mother's second marriage. At John's request, his ashes will be interred on a date to be determined this summer at the Rocky Gap Veterans Cemetery, Cumberland, followed by a "no ties allowed" outdoor celebration of his life at his farm in Bittinger. Much of his early adulthood was spent riding his Triumph and Harley-Davidson motorcycles. In recent years he found joy in watching the wildlife on his farm, tending to Scottish Highland Cattle with Dan and Becky , strumming his guitar, and fishing and hiking with family on his property. "I was lucky enough to do anything I wanted throughout my life and to live in a time when cars were big and fast, and gas was cheap. I've had a great life." Republican Newspaper 4/10/08
