His son, Robert, says that the family name was changed to Stevens in 1954. (October 2014)

“Robert "Bob" (Fanny) Stevens, 82, died Monday, Dec. 22, 2008, after a long illness.
Bob was born June 16, 1926, in Concord.
He is survived by his wife of 63 years, Thelma (Guay) Stevens of Concord; six children, Susan and Chuck Beno of Hebron, Mark and Catherine Stevens of Kennebunk, Maine, Lesley and Santos Lara of Pembroke, Robert and Brenda Stevens of Bristol, Lisa Brodeur of Concord, and Sara and John Riley of Center Barnstead; one brother, Michael Fanny of Concord; 19 grandchildren; and 19 great-grandchildren.
He was predeceased by one son, Patrick; his parents, Margaret and Peter Fanny; and two brothers, Peter and Richard Fanny.
Bob went to Walker School, then Concord High, where he lettered in track and graduated in 1944. Flying was a lifelong passion of Bob's. Having already earned his pilot's license at age 16, he joined the Army Air Corps during World War II and attended the Army Pilot Cadet training program. After the war, he became a federal bank examiner and later an auditor for the state of New Hampshire. When he retired, he started an aerial advertising business and could be seen throughout the year towing banners for many of the businesses in the Concord, Lakes Region and Seacoast areas of New Hampshire.
Although flying was the second love of his life after his family, equally important to him was his music. He was an accomplished musician, playing the piano, accordion, guitar and harmonica. He enjoyed playing at every opportunity and played regularly with a group of friends. Before his death, he was able to record two music CDs containing many of his favorite melodies, using the organ and harmonica.
Bob was a former member of the New Hampshire Wing of the Civil Air Patrol, the New Hampshire Aviation Museum and the Centennial Squires. He was also an avid golfer.”
