To the family...my thoughts and prayers are with you and I will join you in celebrating Stanley's life. I went to high school with Stanley but got to know him better when I worked around him. He was a very professional brickmason and a great friend. Will surely miss seeing him around the job site.

I hadn't seen Stanley since high school, but he walked into the office one day and immediately knew who he was. We had great times in 3rd bell @ OFS and will always remember his smile and laugh. My prayers and thoughts are with all his loved ones.
