In Loving Memory

Stan passed away from Alzheimer's disease on September 6, 2025. Even as the disease challenged him, his joyful spirit, sense of humor, and love for sport remained a constant source of inspiration. Always young at heart, Stan had a way of making people laugh—and drawing others to him with his warmth, charm, and unmistakable smile.

He lived boldly and adventurously, embracing life with enthusiasm, curiosity, and kindness. To those who knew him, he was larger than life itself—deeply loved, endlessly encouraging, and impossible to forget. Stan's legacy lives on in the countless lives he touched and the passion for living fully that he shared so freely.
