I am greatly saddened to learn of Stanley's passing. We have been friends since first grade at Hollywood School. I have many fond memories of our time together. He was a kind and gentle man. I am so glad that he found Bettye. They were so happy together. He will be sorely missed by all his friends from Humes High School and many others as well. Take care of Bettye she will need your comfort.
