Stitzel was a local photographer that specialized in weddings. His studio was across the street from Hotel Colville, where many weddings took place, which made it easily accessible for newlyweds to have photos taken.

All Local Historic Plaque Recipients are entered in the Colville Heritage Register and receive one of these burnished copper plaques bearing the date of construction of the building. If you're wondering why the plaques are copper, and not the traditional bronze, it is because it was primarily copper, along with lesser amounts of associated metals, such as silver and gold, which created the impetus for settlement of this area.
Year built or dedicated as indicated on the structure or plaque: 1899
