Dear Marcha and family: I offer my deepest condolences to you and yours for the untimely passing on of a great family man, but just a great man all around. When I worked with him at Diversapack 5 years ago, he was always joking around-even when things weren;t going as planned with the machines, you would see or hear him cutting up to make the problem at hand not soo bad.I will keep you in my prayers that God help you get through this saddened time.

Aunt Marcha, little Stan, Heather & Chris,my heart is sad because Uncle Stan is not here with us. But I know that he is with Jesus and he has no more pain and the cancer that plagued him is no more and he is with his Savior who he loved and followed all his adult life. He is healed and whole and rejoicing with His Savior in heaven. So even though my heart is hurting I am so glad that he hurts no more. I am so blessed to be his niece. Uncle Stan was sweet and kind and loving and genuine and giving and compassionate and a man of integrity and honor and humor and intellect. He had a way of making everyone feel special and loved. He shared his love of, and faith and trust in His Lord throughout his illness--just as he did in his life. His life was lived in service to others. I miss him so but I know that when my time on earth is over he will be waiting at the gate with Jesus to welcome me. I love you all, Deborah

My knowledge of Stan comes from many conversations, with his brother Thom. I learned from him, that Stan was and remains a man of faith. Only now he sees face to face the one in whom his faith was established. May God grant that the entire family of Stan have the faith he had, with that they will all see him again.

Marcha and Family,

Our prayers are with you as you travel through this difficult time.

I respected Stan so very much. He was one of the sweetest men I've ever known. He always sought to work with people and situations with such great compassion and sincerity. His love for the Lord always showed on Stan's face, and in the way he lived his life.
He will always be an example to me of a Godly man, husband, father, and grandfather. He lived his earthly life with such joy and love, and now he is with the Lord he loved so much.
