Everyone who met Stan loved him. He was known for his generosity and profound kindness, known for never having said a negative word about anyone. He inspired those around him to be better. His giant heart made those in his presence feel elevated.
Making people happy is what made him happy. His nickname was “Saint Stan”, or “Our Jewish Saint”. I’ve never met anyone else like him and I am so sad he is no longer here.
I love you, Saint Stan. Thank you for everything.
Your daughter,
Sarah
