William Clemons Stankus

To the Stankus family,
I was saddened to hear of the passing of Clem. He was a wonderful neighbor and very kind man. I had not seen him much since we moved, but would occasionally see him on the porch or at Price Chopper. My heartfelt sympathies to his loving family and his friends. He will be missed.

With the passing of Uncle Clem very many warm and loving memories come to mind.
As all the nieces and nephews will recall the great times we all had at the family picnics at Six Mile Water Works, the family gathering at Christmas, Easter and all the specials occasion. There was never anything but family love at all these occasions.
I can still recall Clem's room off the kitchen with all his collectables and the array of stuff in the basement. Or going out in the backyard and...

On many occasions while puttering in the Salvation Army, City Mission or Goodwill Stores it would be my pleasure to run into "Uncle Clemmie".We would share a conversation about his latest "collection", computer endeavor or family.

When visiting him at Ellis with my dear daughter Elizabeth recently we shared stories and much laughter. I am in gratitude for the joy of that day and the memory of Clemmie I am left with. It is a privilege to have shared the human journey with him.
