Loosing the year-long battle to that unexpected and vicious CANCER. But, My Love... you gave it your all; and I'll treasure all the memories of our fighting it together.
Thank God for all your true friends and select family members who were there for you. You know who they are... I'm sorry that the one sibling you thought really loved you was nowhere to be found during this tumuluous year (2010). But, as you said towards the end... "when least expected, she will get hers."
Not to worry for a moment "My Love" for I'll keep you in my heart always. We (your friends and loved ones who were there for you while you were sick) will always remember your magnetic smile and the "Power of Example" you demonstrated for over the past 20+ years with AA & NA. You are a keeper, and you'll never be forgotten... you are "My Forever True Love and SoulMate."
Stan, you touched more lives than I believe you even knew... you're going to be missed terribly. Sweetie... I love you now and forever... 'till we are joined again... Thank you for the 16+ years we shared... Thank God for the memorable good times that towered the small valleys we at times traveled... it's all relative as we now look back at our lives together.
Stan, God saw that you were getting tired and a cure was not to be, so He put His arms around you and whispered "Come to Me my son." With tearful eyes I watched you peacefully fade away. Although I loved you dearly, I could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands now rest. God broke my heart to prove to me He only takes the Best.
I'm happy you were able to finally let go and take God's hand when you knew we had done all we could to fight the cancer. He brought you home with Him, and I know you're now in no pain and in a better place living your reward. You always knew how much I truly and unconditionally loved you... and, I will forever love you my sweetness.
Thank you Stanley for teaching me that taking that leap of faith and loving you would be so worth it... you taught me to love again... and for that, I am forever grateful to you for being the love of my life. Now "My Love", it's time for you to Rest In Paradise. Your wife "Winnie"

Hello My Love (XXXXXXOOOOOO) I know you're celebrating up there with my Mom. I heard the song by Pharrell, "HAPPY", and I knew you were dancing with her. I've been thinking of you all day and felt your presence. I've been a bit depressed since the weather started to change to the cold, but knowing I'd be able to share your day with you brought me pleasure beyond you wildest dreams. I worked hard, and even did some overtime because I didn't want this day to end. I'm home now with SNJ, and winding down, but wanted to share all of today with you. You continue to Rest in Paradise!!! Love you forever My Love

Howl At The Full Moon
Stan,
Every Full Moon I look up to the sky and smile knowing how we had our favorite times laughing and acknowledging the effects the Full Moon had on us... (SMILE). I love remembering how you would come out at night on the patio or in the driveway and HOWL at the moon knowing I'd be in the window looking at how giddy we would get. They aren't the same, but I will always remember them with you. Hope you look down and smile too.
Lovingly,
"Winnie" (SMILE)
Happy Birthday Stan!
Today is a special day to remember, year 2011 and the day is December 1st…today is so very special because I will be celebrating your birth ~ Giving thanks to the creator up above for making no mistakes when he created you…now you can do all the thanking in person, up close and personal ~
Even though it feels like yesterday when you had to go on a journey far away…the love and memories you left behind, will always be with me, in my heart to stay ~
I know you would’ve probably celebrated today with Winnie your wife…some nice jazz music, some salad, a home cooked dinner and dessert, all by candle light ~ Or even gone out with my mom & friends to a casino…then win like crazy, take all the casino’s money, smoke a cigar and then say “I’m ready let’s go” LOL! ~
No matter how you look at it you would’ve been celebrating it along with ice cream and cake some place…so there are no room for these tears of mine that are now rolling down my face…I shall wipe these tears away, go clean my face because I believe you are truly in a better place ~
I will turn my frown upside down, and look up into that bright light, because I know that’s YOU smiling down ~ I hope you continue to visit anytime you please, I say this in prayer, with hands folded tight, down on bending knees…
Happy Birthday Stan the man!
Love you, your daughter Shanie
