Stan holds a very dear place in my heart. He was like a brother and a father to me. My biggest regret was that I didn't get to say goodbye. I still have the ticket stub from the last Viking game we went to. Which was the last time I saw him. I will miss his encouragment and unselfish nature.

This is Nicki Stan's other grand daughter. Although Stan is only my step-grandpa & I have only known him for about 5 years, he has a VERY special place in my heart & I am very thankful that I got to know him. He is very loved & missed. I know he's in a better place, and I know I'll see him again someday. God bless you Stan.
