Later in life, Stan became heavily involved in the sprint car racing community where he was well known and liked by all. Stan's special place was when he could be helping in some capacity in the racing community, whether it was hauling clay to the track, fixing the lights, or especially setting up the car for the night's events.
A reception and celebration of life will be held Friday, Nov. 14, 1PM @ 192 Willow Rd NW.
