Oh my gosh.....I am so saddened. Stan was such a wonderful person. I loved working with him at Freddie's in the meat department. He was always happy with a smile on his face. I can still hear him saying to me "Child you are going to cut yourself" every time I picked up a knife. He always wanted to sharpen it for me, but I preferred it a little duller. I will always have such wonderful memories of him. I send my sincere condolences to Maria and the rest of Stan's family. Rest in peace my dear friend. Mardi
