Stanley Elkins

Stanley Ray Elkins, a cherished husband, father, grandfather, and friend, left this world on November 6, 2025, at the age of 72. Born on February 5, 1953, in Huntington, West Virginia, Stanley was the beloved son of the late Eugene and Doris Elkins.
He leaves behind a legacy of love and cherished memories, particularly with his devoted wife, Cheryl Elkins. Their marriage stood as a beacon of commitment, having been together for nearly half a century, a union marked by mutual respect, laughter, and unwavering support.
Stanley is also survived by his daughter, Kara Bailey and his grandchild, Ren Bailey.
A man of the outdoors, Stanley found solace and pleasure in the embrace of nature. Camping and fishing was something he thoroughly enjoyed with his family. His gentle soul also extended to the care of animals, finding joy in their companionship and the unspoken bond they shared.
Stanley's life was one of quiet dedication to the things that mattered most: family, nature, and the simple pleasures of life. While he has departed from the physical world, his spirit remains a comforting presence in the lives of those who knew and loved him. Condolences may be left at www.lakesfuneralhome.com.
