CAMDEN Talented seaweed scientist, gardener, mentor to mushroomers, poet, artist, beloved older brother, father, father-in-law, grandfather and great-grandfather Dimitri James Stancioff, took his last breath at home in Camden on February 10 at the age of 94.

He was born in London on April 18, 1926 to American-born artist and writer Carolyn Marion Mitchell Stancioff and Bulgarian diplomat Ivan Robert Stancioff. The first of seven children, he earned the lifelong admiration of his three sisters and three brothers with his unique blend of playful humor, wisdom, humility, practicality, eccentricity, and tranquility.
