Stanley A. Frantz, passed away on August 28, 2025, in Jersey Shore at the age of 72. Stanley was born on April 6, 1953, in Williamsport, to the late William C. and Marian (Cero) Frantz. He lived a life filled with love, laughter, and dedication to his family and community.

Stanley's career was spent as a dedicated truck driver for many years, where his hard work and commitment were well respected. Beyond his professional endeavors, Stanley found joy in the simple pleasures of life. He particularly enjoyed playing quates with friends and family, always bringing laughter and good cheer to those around him. Known for his playful spirit, Stanley loved being surrounded by his family, delighting in teasing them and creating cherished memories.

A loyal member of the Jersey Shore community, Stanley was actively involved with the American Legion and VFW, offering his time and support to these organizations that meant so much to him.

Stanley is preceded in death by his parents, his brother Paul Frantz, and his sisters Georgia Harris and Barbara Caster. He leaves behind a loving family who will forever cherish his memory: his daughters, Teena Frantz and Valerie Barnes (Thomas); his seven grandchildren; his brothers Jon Frantz (Bonnie), Harold Frantz, and Carl Frantz; his sister Alberta Duffield; and Charlotte Shepherd (Kenny). Stanley also leaves behind a niece, Kami among other nieces and nephews.

A celebration of Stanley's life will be held at a later date, allowing friends and family to gather in remembrance at their convenience. Arrangements are being handled by Rearick Carpenter Funeral Home, located at 1002 Allegheny Street, Jersey Shore, PA.
