Eldon Stoltzfus (1948-2021)

Eldon advocated for people who faced barriers and limitations. During the last years of his life, he served ADN as executive director, using his people skills and love of the church. To know that ADN continues to assist churches as they expand access to life-giving participation for people in their communities would give Eldon great joy.

ADN is grateful for Eldon’s leadership of our organization and passion for our mission.

Justin Yoder (1986-2024)

Justin lived a life rich in love and joy. He found his calling as a sign language interpreter, a career that allowed him to work with others in a deeply meaningful way. One of the greatest joys of Justin’s life was marrying his wife, Stephanie. Family gatherings were a highlight of his life, and despite the challenges of environments inaccessible to people with Spina Bifida, Justin never missed his nieces’ and nephews’ soccer games or other family events.

As an active member of College Mennonite Church, Justin demonstrated his love for God by assisting with children and youth ministries. He warmly welcomed everyone to find their place in God’s family, embodying the spirit of inclusivity and faith. Justin’s life was a testament to resilience, joy, and the power of community. Though his journey was not without challenges, his legacy of love and perseverance will continue to inspire all who were fortunate enough to know him.

Justin’s mother, Sheila Yoder, was a founding board member of ADN.
