Warrior, God bless him and his brother and Mike and his family

You and your brother Mike were HALLMARK SCOTSMEN leaders (in very different ways) for decades on the northern end of Orange St. From St. Stanislaus to ND at a young age you were the one that led with: "All's right that happens in the World." And with a Motown song in your heart (their stars you loved to sing to...) you particularly helped others/friends/new faces with advice, correction, and your experience. In your life you were awarded rational
gifts of being able to see things (all-around) for what they are, and to weigh and treat them on their merits. Many strengths composed your life action by action to speak with truth.

I first met Stan at the Eastern Basketball Camp in Moodus, CT. What a great guy! Very funny, always had a good line to add to the conversation. The line used most often by him was "you think this is easy!".The staff played every night under the Dome. What a great player! It's one thing watching him in high school run over people, but when it happens to you, wow! There's not a court I walk on that I don't think of him. When I get there Stan I'm on your team.

From street ball to ND, and standing with you brother, you always were a gentleman, and when it was needed you shocked a lot of them with your stand of strength. ND's first Bball break-out player. And maximizing the gifts of God and nature, and always doing the "right thing", you made your course through law school, and then the BAR. Someone Goatville could always be proud of.
