Lynn, Jen, Mark and Ben. Words cannot describe how I feel for you. Stan was a great man from what I remember growing up with you in my early childhood. He was the kind of I guy I would look up to, admire and model myself after of the good guy he was. All my best to you all.

Lynn and family, I just heard about Stan, and cannot stop thinking about our lives years ago on Encanto Way. Seems like yesterday, but so long ago. Stan and I always got along very well. Lots of kids stories.
So sorry for your loss.

Lynn, Ben, Mark and Jennifer my heart goes out to you. You and Stan were there after Steve died and I need you to know you are in my thoughts and prayers. Just two weeks ago Stan and I were on the phone "catching" up on family and life. He was always one to help keep my spirits up. He always celebrated his family and life. We should all learn from him. God be with you during this time and always.

My sympathy to Stan's family, many of whom I met at Lloyd's funeral. Stan grew up with us as one of the neighborhood kids who all lived at one another's homes day-in and day-out. We had a great childhood in that old family-friendly neighborhood. Modest but better than kids know today. May Stan rest in peace!
