Not sure what to say?

I only met Stan a few times, but I was blessed to have known him. He was a wonderful person. I remember when he and Rhiannon and I sold the little flowers at Sentry in Waukesha for the Veterans when I was a little girl. Every time I see a veteran with the flowers, I think of that day.

STAN SPENT MOST OF HIS TIME AFTER SERVING IN THE WAR HELPING VETERANS , HE WAS A SUPER PERSON. HE WENT TO THE V.A. SEVERAL TIMES TO HELP ME GET BENEFITS. THE CANMAN AND I WERE ALWAYS CLOSE FRIENDS.WE WILL ALL MISS YOU STAN

WHEN WE ARRIVED IN FLORIDA FOR OUR FIRST WINTER, THE FIRST TO COME WELCOME US WAS STAN, OUR NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR AND WHAT A NEIGHBOR. WE ARE SURE THAT WE HAD THE BEST NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR IN THE WHOLE PARK. HE IMMEDIATELY ADOPTED US AS "FAMILY" AND WE LET HIM. WE BONDED AND ENJOYED EVERY MINUTE WE WERE AROUND HIM, ALWAYS A SMILE ON HIS FACE AND A STORY TO TELL. DON'T THINK WE EVER MET ANYBODY WHO LOVED PEOPLE SO MUCH. HIS PLACE COULD NEVER HAVE TOO MUCH COMPANY. SOON LESLIE AND DALE CAME...

Cousin Stan will be so fondly remembered. I was so happy that he and Ruth visited us in Alaska three years ago, 49 years after I had last seen him at my parents' (Ben and Lucille Pearson) home in Minnesota, when I was just 12 years old. He was a joy to visit with and truly exemplifies the Veteran image in America.

He will be sorely missed. My sincere condolences to Ruth and all of Stan's family.

It was a privilege to have known Stan Borgstrom. He was a true gentleman, and we will miss him.

My wife and I met Stan only once and that was in the Capitol building in Madison 2 years ago. It was a pleasure to know Stan through correspondence. We are brothers as Veterans and Stan will never be forgotten. We will keep fighting for all Veterans. Peace be with you now, forever.
