“He loved spending time with his family, picnicking, swimming and boating in the Adirondacks. He also enjoyed playing golf with friends and family. He was an avid sports fan, a passion he shared with his son, Stan.”

He is survived by his son, Stan III; by his daughters, Diane Van Buren and her husband, Steve, and Nancy Warner and her husband, Paul. He is also survived by his grandchildren, Andrea (Steve) Witham, Michael Dean (Scott), and Caitlyn Dean (Tucker).
