Dear Stephanie, I and my family are saddened to hear of Stans passing. Although it has been many years since I have seen Stan I remember him as a bright,happy and upright young man. We loved having him visit in our home and we enjoyed visiting with you and your family in your home too many years ago. My late husband Joe looked forward to playing basketball with Stan and the crew in the back of Madison school long after they graduated. May Gods peace be with all of you and may your many wonderful memories help you through this sad time. With sincerest sympathy, Caroline Downey

Uncle Stash,
I have so many memories of when I was younger with you. I haven't been around much over the last few years and I am so sorry I missed out on many more memories. I will always remember your smile. You had the BEST smile. It lit up the room.

I know you are in a better place watching over all of us and sitting next to Aunt Diane. You will be that little voice that Brett, Hunter, and Kristina hear when they are least expecting it. Please guide them to find happiness through their sorrow.

I Love You and will Miss You Always!

Thanks for being a great friend.

Dear Lord, let thy peace and comfort soften our sorrow and fill the void in our hearts at the passing of our friend Stan Wojtkowski.
Thou, who marks the sparrows fall and knoweth all things, hath found it fit to take him from this earthly life and from among the friends with whom he found surcease from life's demands in the outdoor pursuits we all enjoy. May his passing Lord, remind us that neither do we know the hour nor day when our own appointed time is come. May his passing remind us too, so to live and so to enjoy the outdoor recreation Thou hast provided for us that there can be no reproach nor censure when our time comes.

Amen.
