Esau Stanley Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Mar. 11, 2025.
Esau Cooper "Ace" Stanley, born on April 5, 1990, passed away on October 7, 2024, in Boston, Massachusetts. A lifelong resident of New Hampshire, Ace had a deep appreciation for nature and found great joy in the beauty of North Conway. His adventurous spirit led him to travel whenever possible, embracing new experiences along the way.

Ace was a devoted family man whose children meant the world to him. He shared a special bond with his sister Jane and was a steadfast protector of his family as the oldest sibling and only brother. His wife Vanessa was the love of his life, and together they created cherished memories over their eight years together and took in Vanessa two children as his own with his heart full of love for them. His younger sister Vivian always turned to him for advice or simply to talk. He shared a birthday with his mother, Colleen, and nephew, Mark. His father William taught him the family tradition of paving, a craft passed down through generations.

His children-son Ace and daughters Isabella and Vivian-were his greatest joy. He would do anything for them, always making time for adventures and special moments together. His youngest daughter Vivian loved going on treasure hunts or accompanying him to work; she adored every moment spent by his side.

Known for his strong work ethic and vast knowledge, Ace could accomplish anything he set his mind to. He had a passion for fishing and enjoyed playing PlayStation in his free time. His infectious laughter and fun-loving nature brought light to those around him. He loved Red Bulls and sweets, as well as Dunkin's coffee-medium with four creams and four sugars. Taking his wife and kids on adventures was one of his greatest joys; he truly understood that love and family were life's most valuable treasures.

Ace is now reunited with his beloved daughter Eleanor. May his memory bring comfort to those who knew and loved him.

He will be deeply missed by his family and friends.

It´s such a shame and very heartbreaking that you are not here to celebrate your 35th birthday brother! Becoming an old mush. I am now a year younger than you and it should not be that way you are always two years older than me. I miss you so much and can´t wait to celebrate your birthday in a few days with you at cemetery. Happy 35th birthday brother I love and miss you so very much xox

You was my best friend my big Brother my everyday life! You & I will always share a special bond a bond I can never replace with anyone else. There is not a second of a day that goes by I don´t think of you or kiss you hurt for you and love you! You are the reason I look forward to going to heaven and will be waiting for that day to come when I can see your face again my brother! I sure do miss you popping up randomly at my house I´m so glad it was a safe comfortable place for u a place to call home when you was away from your home. I will never forget our rides, our conversations, laughter, stupid petty arguments, the whole bond a brother and sister share. I remember how happy you was when we all went to Boston and had a fun sibling bonding night I remember you said to me we need to do this more! What I wouldn´t give to go back and I would´ve spent every second with you and would never have taken any moment for granted. Until we meet again my brother bc I can´t live this life long without you! I lost a part of me on Oct 7 when we lost you I will never be the same. THIS SUCKS!!!!
