I am so sorry for the families loss of Stanley Sims. He was probably the best friend I ever had. Stanley had many friends and we all loved him. I will always miss him and will never forget his kindness. He was my go-to person when I just needed to talk. He always was there when I needed someone. He will be loved and missed throughout all time.
