William Pate Stonner II born February 1971, Jason Christopher Stonner born May 1972 and Michael Paul Stonner born January 1975.

Lorie and Bill purchased their first home in Lochbuie Colorado and as their family grew and required more room, they moved just down the way located on the outskirts of town between Ft. Lupton and Hudson. Here they would find their forever home, a place they would watch their kids grow, and seasons change.

Four grandsons: William (Billy), Jaden, Logan, and Odin. Teo great grandsons: Aiden and Ronin.
