I remember warming up on the court with Stan. He would have 1 hand in his pocket while hitting the ball. He was so cool! RIP, Love Val

Mr Stan, you will surely be missed. I will always remember when we were in Miami and won the ATA Nationals and I had an injured knee. We really celebrated. RIP my friend. Love, Marion
