Mr. Evans,
Sir, as a fellow Marine I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the USMC with the 4th Mar Div during WW II. It was the history and accomplishments that you and your fellow Marines in the 4th Mar Div achieved during the War at places like Roi-Namur, Saipan, and Iwo Jima that all of us Marines who have followed in your footsteps have always tried to live up to. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Marcia and Family,
Our prayers are with you at your time of loss. Stanley was an engaging man who we had the pleasure to know for the past few years. We will miss his smiling face at dialysis and the wonderful stories of his life's adventures.

David, my deepest sympathy to you and your family. The stories you related to me of your dad were always filled with great love and respect for a good man and father. May you find great comfort in knowing that he is at peace with God.
