My sincere condolences for the loss of Stan, my classmate at Kaplan. I know Stan was working to better his life with higher education, and he was an excellent student and contributed to our class with his vast experience in skip-tracing. I will be praying for his family friends and loved ones as they grieve for such an unexpected loss.
