A very talented pianist/organist, bringing joy through music to others was his passion. Stanley loved music, beginning playing at a very young age. He was a US Navy Veteran of the Viet Nam Conflict attaining the rank of Yeoman 2^nd Class and even took his talent across the seas where he entertained the troops in Viet Nam and the local Vietnamese with concerts and impromptu sessions on an organ he had brought with him from home. After spending many years in Wurlitzer and Hammond organ sales, Stan played the piano and organ across the Chicagoland area and tuned pianos in many homes. Throughout his travels, Stan gathered many friends and he will be sadly missed by all who knew and loved him. He was a member of the American Legion, Whiting Post 80 and the Church of the Atonement, Chicago.
