Dear Lori, Nicole & Jena; Wanda, Julie & John: and extended family,
I and my family here in Colorado offer our deepest sympathies to you. I remember during our growing up years all the many times the Fabion, Truedson and Kelly cousins, Aunts and Uncles spent together at the lakes in Minneapolis and on the Haack home farm in west central Minnesota. We did not hear of Stanley's passing until Saturday morning. Had we known a couple days sooner we certainly would have came in person to offer our heart felt condolences. (Stan's mother was the younger sister of my mother Elayne). May God hold you close during this time and may you find peace in knowing He has taken Stan home to be with Him. God Bless you all.

Lori, It's 10:40pm on Friday night and I was just reading the paper tonight and in absolute shock and disbelief about reading about Stanley's death. I've thought about you guys a lot over the years. We sure had a lot of great times on 63rd Street, didn't we? You and the girls are in my thougths and prayers.

Julie & Wanda and your families;

We are all shocked and saddened to hear about Stanley. We regret that we cannot be with you tonight, but send our prayers and thoughts of condolences. We have gone varied and separate paths since all of the Sunday dinners we shared in our youth. It doesn't seem that long ago when I think back.
Please extend our sympathies to Stanley's wife and children.

Lori, I'm so-o-o sorry to hear about your husband. I know what you are going through as I have experienced it myself (my husband was 37). I knew you when you and your brothers were little. Turning to God really helped me. The Seven Dolor Shrine in South Haven is a very peaceful place to go to for contemplating in the Grotto area. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I wish I could give you a hug.
Love, (your mom's friend)
