It was indeed an honor of working with and being a Caregiver for Mr. Stanton. I missed his smile and the stories he told. He is resting safely in God's arms.

A wonderful man was taken away from us. For the short time that I have known you you made me smile. I have learned so much from you. You were full of energy and life, you had a healthy appetite and was willing to try something new. I would surely miss you Mr. Stanton. You are now an angel in the arms of God. May your soul rest in peace.Patricia Coutain your caregiver

Mr. Stanton,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served with the USN during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
