Family of Mr. Stanley, I live across the street and one over to the left of their home. One funny story...I was having a bridal shower at my home and the girl that sent out the invites mistyped the address and put his address on the card. He came and said to me, they are going to be ringing my door till they all arrive. I had to solve the problelm so I put a sign on his mailbox pointing an arrow to my house stating that was where the shower was and not at Mr. and Mrs. Stanley's home. I always enjoyed him working on his yard and then he could no more. I have really missed seeing him if even just to get his mail. Please know he was a loved neighbor on our block and some others a little further out on Low Oak. God rest his soul, I will keep him in my prayers.

Sylvia, Mary, John, and Paul: My sincere condolences on your loss. Mr. Stanley was my much loved neighbor for greater than 25 years. Over these last couple of years, I have greatly missed him and our many conversations about our gardens (comparing of course), his love of his family, workers’ compensation, his volunteer work, the boundary waters, and life in general. He was truly a kind, generous, and good man. I am so lucky to have had my life touched by him. May all of your wonderful memories together bring you comfort in the days ahead.
