Stan was my cousin and was always a very special guy. I so enjoyed visiting he and Shirley when they lived in Las Vegas years ago before they moved back to South Dakota. Even though he was a ‘few’ years older, he always took time for family. He used to visit my mother and father even after his parents left Des Moines and they always enjoyed seeing him. May he rest in peace now. Much love to my cousin Sue and to Shirley. Its so hard to say goodbye.
