Stanley Rydberg

I had the great pleasure of knowing Stan my whole life. He was called "Stan the Man" for good reason. I spent from 1974 through 1985 living with him in Sterling AK. It was one of the greatest periods of my life. My uncle John Cook and my aunt Carol also lives in Sterling and there daughters who also made that period in my life even more memorable .Our dog Oslo also made our lives even better. When I get down I can always recall those fine years with the greatest pleasure.

Happy Birthday Stanley! You share your birthday with my Aunt Eveyln and friend Shelli Valdez. I'm late for Helen's wishes, so please pass on my birthday wishes to all of them. Hey, I've been wondering for a long time. Do you celebrate birthdays on the other side and if so, are your birthdays the same as they were here on earth, or does the day you crossed over become your re-birthday day? Wish I had an answer to that. Thinking of you and everyone else in my life who have crossed over, today...

Stan, I miss you more every day As time goes by it is harder to live without you. Am hoping to see you soon. I hope Oslo is there with you

Hey Stanley, your memory book popped up in my email today. I was thinking the other day that it was sometime around now that you passed. A little late in my thinking but hey, that's what happens in old age. Ha. I think of you, Brian, Helen and Joe often; Bob is always present in my mind. The Valley is a lonely place without all of you. You have each other up there and I'm sure you're all having good times together.

Uncle SSchtanley! Havent actually "in writing" visited with you in forever but you are in my head and heart always. So many things in daily life trigger such good memories. I sure miss you and think of you so very oftrn. I love you

Uncle Schtenley, been thinking of you and all the other angels you are flying with. I miss each and every one of you. I was thinking of our lutefisk dinner and the episode with Aunt Aileen. I've never laughed so hard. I love you, until we meet again.

Uncle Stan I sure miss you and mom and dad. I know you're all together again so that makes me happy during lonely times. I visited you and dads grave today and moms wall in Soldotna cemetery , it's pretty there woods and the kenai river flows by. Lots of peace for reading like you and mom would love. I hope to see you all some day until then I sure do miss you. Love Betty

Uncle Schtanley! Long time no talk but always, always thinking of you. Almost done with February...again. Am in Denver as our little Timothy became the father of a little boy on the 22nd. My, how time flies. Jeffrey is back in the woods with me and we play lots of Yahtzee. He doesn't beat me nearly as badly as you. Miss you so very much. Hello to my folks and the rest of the clan. I love you.

Uncle Schtanley, long time no chat. Seems as the years go by I am able to get on the internet in the middle of the woods, even less than I could before. Doesn't mean I don't think of you every day and wish you were visiting me, again, out there. Miss our hot Yahtzee games, even though I lost most of the time. Those damn 6's. Remember I think of you and miss you and love you.
