I remember Stan from my first reading at a Taproot meeting. He said that I needed more details. He was right and I still follow his advice.
He was a good friend writing about me, coming to my 70th birthday party and visiting when I was sitting shiva for my husband. Rest in peace, Stanley. My deepest condolences Lorraine.
