Our deepest sympathy. So sorry for your loss. Our prayers are with you.

I’m so very sorry for your loss. I’ve known Stan for many years throughout my Kaman and Dodge career. He was a tremendous individual – always a pleasure to work and be around with.
You’re all in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.
I’m so sorry for you all and so saddened to hear this. Stash, my old bandmate and since then, my “Stop and Shop” buddy (where we’d always bump into eachother and talk), God bless you, Stash and your beautiful family.
Our hearts are deeply saddened; they say where there is much grief, there was great love.
May Stan’s soul rest peacefully with our Lord, and may your warm and loving memories give
you peace and healing. I knew him for 24 years and he truly was an incredible man whose legacy
was his unending love and devotion to his family and his willingness to fight for time spent making memories with them. We were privileged to have known him. God be with you, and Godspeed my dear friend Stan…….
