My deepest condolences to Jane and family. Stan was such a wonderful person, we had many great chats and laughs throughout the years at NC. I guess heaven needed another angel. May he rest in peace

I am in shock, what an incredible loss. My heartfelt condolences to you Jane, whom he always talked about and adored, and all of the family. Chef Stanley West was also my mentor, chef, professor and confidant many years ago at NC. Coming into class he would always have a smile and a convo about back home, or food of course lol. I kept in touch via fb, still asking for his advice or a recipe and he was always there to answer.
I admired, respected and adored Chef West. He truly was one if a kind and will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him. Rest in peace
