He was a skilled craftsman and woodworker and enjoyed surprising his grandsons with his handcrafted toys. He loved tinkering and could often be found working on his 1989 Corvette. With his beloved wife of 45 years, Bonnie, Stanley enjoyed wintering in Florida, visiting the Jersey shore, attending concerts and an occasional trip to the Borgata.
