I knew Stan from the time we were five when we attended Tamarack Camp together. Stan and I talked many times over the following 57 years, becoming closer in the last few years. We got together several times following his therapy at the Chicago Rehab Institute.
Stan was a great guy. He was fortunate to follow his passion of bridge for so many years, eventually serving in a professional capacity with the American Contract Bridge league.
