Stan as he was known, passed peacefully at home February 21, 2026 at the age of 107. Preceded in death by his wife of 65 years, Virginia Taylor Proffitt, and his daughter, Kathy Newcomb. He is survived by his daughter Nancy Killgore, his son-in-laws Raymond Killgore and Allen Newcomb, four grandchildren, Paul Newcomb (Samantha), Sarah Bjorn (Brig), Callie Wiborg (Chris), Emily Bochy (Hoyt), and twelve great grandchildren. Stan was born in Hanover County, VA, a family of four boys and two girls. The son of a farmer, who went on to excel in life.
