Much love,

Oh! I just saw this. I am so sorry. I knew Stanley from events all over the city, and just saw him at the PFAC fundraiser. He was quite a guy. Everyone will miss him. Barbara, Vince and I are so sorry. Sorry this isn't very eloquent; I'm in a bit of a shock. Many hugs.

Dear Margo - I just read the sad news of Stanley's passing. I just got out of the hospital and am hooked up to oxygen, so I can't come to the funeral. I know what you are going through. This is when you give thanks for family and friends. Let them help. It takes time, but the memories are always there. They never go away. Love, Sonny
