Stan was a godsend to our family; he was always there for us. He cared for our daughter as nobody else could. He was here for such a short period of time and we will miss him and love him for forever.

DEAR SUE: I KNOW THE PAIN THAT YOUR HUSBAND WAS IN FOR I AM THERE MYSELF. HOWEVER, HE WAS PROBABLY A LOT LIKE ME AND DID NOT WANT TO BE A BURDEN TO ANYONE SO HE TRIED TO HIDE AS MUCH OF THE PAIN AS HE COULD. IT IS DIFFICULT TO DO, BUT SOMEHOW GOD GIVES YOU THE STRENGTH TO DO THIS. HE NOW LIVES WHERE I SOON WILL AND I CAN'T WAIT TO GET THROUGH THOSE BEAUTIFUL GATES. PLEASE ACCEPT MY CONDOLENCES FOR YOUR LOSS. I REMEMBER WHAT MY PASTOR ALWAYS SAID AT MY GRANDMOTHER'S FUNERAL AND MY DAD'S. THIS IS NOT A TIME FOR GRIEVING BUT A TIME FOR JOY FOR HE IS NOW WITH OUR LORD AND YOU WILL ONE DAY BE THERE WITH THEM. ALWAYS KEEP THAT IN MIND FOR HE IS UP THERE SMILING NOW AND OUT OF PAIN. HE IS WITH YOU ALL THE TIME BUT YOU MUST GO ON WITH YOUR LIFE ALSO FOR THIS IS WHAT HE WANTS AND ALSO OUR GOD. GOD BLESS AND IF THERE IS ANYTHING I CAN EVER DO, PLEASE CALL ME. I KNOW YOU LOVED HIM VERY MUCH AND I KNOW YOU FEEL LONELY BUT HE IS THERE WITH YOU AND ALWAYS WILL BE IN SPIRIT. LOVE YOU FRIEND, BRENDA

Dearest Brother,
You have enabled me to be part of a beautiful love story of a family. I had the opportunity to be part of your last days because your determined wife encouraged it. She also encouraged your son to be part of your life to the very end. The love of a wife, son and sister to help you move from this plain to the next. Thank you so much for the beautiful memories. Thank you brother for a loving sister and nephew and for loving me as I am.
Rest in peace my dear brother for you have accomplished much in such a short lifetime.
Love,
Chris
