    Jane, So sorry for your loss. Stanley was truly a long-term friend of mine. He and I go back so many years it hurts to remember a time without Stanley. I know you will feel lost but know that your friends and children will carry you forward. Jesus Christ is now privileged with a new bunch of stories and playful talk from Stanley.

    Stanley, my brother, Curtis Daniels, and Wayne LaRue were best friends in high school with all three joining the Marine Corps together. They remained friends all these years. Curtis passed away on Thanksgiving and now Stanley. Wayne passed away years ago. I can just imagine the reunion they are now having. May our Lord give your family peace, strength and comfort at this time and always.
