The sound of Stan’s infectious laughter is a sound in my mind that will never go away. He was always the optimist and the one giving encouragement and support to his friends. I will be forever grateful to Stan, as I was so fortunate to be a friend in high school, fraternity brothers at the University of Texas and later to have a business connection through our roles with Frost Bank. Stan was an influencer long before that term gained popularity. Most impressive was his commitment to high ethical standards. His tenure at Frost and his influence on the culture there will long be remembered. And his friends will be forever thankful that he walked tall among us. We all could use more like Stan.

Close friends since age seven, Stan WAS the brother I never had.  Our lives shadowed each for almost eight decades.

Quite the philosopher thru out his life, Stan often reminded his friends not to simply hear a song…but rather “to listen to the WORDS”!

His KINDNESS, HUMILITY and BROTHERHOOD were quiet TRADEMARKS OF Stans’.

A friend and mentor to many, he will terribly missed.  “LOVED THE MAN” applies to STAN.

What a wonderful man Stan was!  I never stopped laughing with Stan around! We all have great memories of he and Bobbie going with many of the senior’s parents to Cancun for spring break….i have some of the funniest videos of him ….Stan the man.  We also worked together when he was with Frost bank and he would call me about foreclosures.  What a dear friend and he will so be missed.  Love to Bobbie, Travis and Brook…..Stan was one in a million!

Stan was my  roommate as I moved into the fraternity house as a second semester freshman.  And, boy,  could I use a stabilizing influence. What a solid role model he was for me whether it was study habits, balancing social and academic, providing leadership on the fraternity, or just attending church on Sunday, The man walked his talk.

My condolences to his family.....

Stan was a big presence at ut law school where we were schoolmates.  Then he married one of the popular & prestigious Busby sisters & moved across the street from us on grandview.   One morning Bette was looking after her garden & Stan mosied over to chat before going to work. He never seemed like he was in a hurry. Stan asked about me. Bette told him that I was heavily concerned that we could reopen our scrap business after being condemned by the City. Stan probed more deeply because he genuinely cared about everyone   Henry Cisneros (later failed) Vista Verde project had set the value low in a rigged system wherein if an appraisal was too generous that appraiser would never be rehired by the City.  It turned out that our very appraiser was Carl nentwich with whom Stan had just taken a job. Carl was a crusty fellow with Castroville roots.  When Stan told Carl he raised our valuation about  thirty percent   That is the reason we could reopen.  Stan was a man of faith & principles who always strove to do the right thing. He was a friend to all.   His memory is a blessing
