CAMIEL (CAM) STOCKER, married to Dorothy Imm Stocker, and lived in Chicago area all his life, attended Loyaola University and studied "Coat of Arms," designed this coat fo arms and painted it. Cam painted many canvas oil pictures and was a talented painter. Cam attended 2 colleges but did not graduate from either.
Dorothy met him when he served the U S Military and was stationed at the NIKE site located near Rural Ridge a few miles southeast of Russelton (west of New Kensington, PA). I will add furthers comments on Cam. by Bob Imm(brother-in-law od Cam)
