Not sure what to say?

Debbie I just saw this today! I'm so sorry to hear about Stan! I have great memories of spending time with you and Stan. I'm sorry for your loss. If you need anything, feel free to contact me. Harold Townley (5183698739)

Great guy ! Many fond memories I was 4 or 5 years behind Stan at Galway Central, but got the chance to sing, work, play, and travel with Stan in the late 70’s and early 80’s . Everything was a competition so much fun to be around
No more pain my friend !!!

My condolences to Stan’s family. I was in medical school with Stan and we completed residency together. We were both ED docs, and occasionally worked together at EDs in the Capital District. He was friendly, smart, athletic and an excellent physician. I recall him sunbathing on the roof of Albany Medical Center while on weekend call ready to leap through a window in case of an emergency. He also set up "Manly Stanley's Gym" in the student dorms as a freshman. He will be missed by many.

My sincerest condolences to Deb, Kevin and Nick during this difficult time. No one could ever replace Stan Docyk. May our memories of him live on for all eternity.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.You will be missed at WMA UC but your stories and teachings will never be forgotten.

My heart is broken, my thoughts and prayers are with his family. He will truly be missed

Sorry for your family’s loss. I worked in the ER at Ellis Hospital with him when i was first became a nurse and he was such a wonderful doctor to work with. Keeping you in my prayers

I worked with Stanley for more than 15 years at Ellis and Saratoga, I am so so sorry for your loss

Dr. Docyk,

To your family, please accept my deepest condolences. May you find comfort in knowing how many lives he touched with his generosity, dedication, and...
