In his early years at Firestone, he was able to travel to Germany and Mexico, serving an integral position in the manufacturing of air rides, tire and tank track.
Stan enjoyed the game of golf and was always very excited to cheer on his Louisville Cardinals. He was a very proud father and Papaw that absolutely adored his grandchildren. Stan had an unbelievable amount of patience and loved math, chemistry and driving lessons. He also enjoyed cheering for their sports and sharing every adventure and accomplishment.
Stan was an avid reader of the daily newspaper (always completing the daily crossword puzzle) and a well-informed Noblesville resident. He never met a stranger and was very quick to share his knowledge on a variety of Facebook posts.
Stan volunteered in a variety of positions. His favorite spot was sitting at the information desk at the Riverview Hospital ER. Stan also drove a food donation truck for Third Phase, volunteered at St. Vincent DePaul, and served for many years as a Sacristan and Eucharistic Minister at Our Lady of Grace Church.
