Stanley John Dudrick, M.D., of Eaton Center, N.H., passed away peacefully at home early Saturday morning, Jan. 18, 2020, after a long and stubborn battle with multiple medical issues.
Born in the coal mining town of Nanticoke, Pa., on April 9, 1935, to Stanley and Stephanie Jachimczak Dudrick, Stanley first visited the Eaton area in the late 1960s and fell in love soon after purchasing and “restoring” the old Ellis place in Snowville.
