Pete was the eldest son of Clyde Earl Stanley and Elizabeth (Foster) Stanley, both deceased.

Raised in Philadelphia, Pete graduated from Villanova University as a civil engineer. He was a long-time gas safety engineer for the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission, retiring in 2007. Family and friends will remember him for his kindness, his love of reading, in particular history, his enthusiasm for railroads, and his delight in trivia.
