What a beautiful  ceremony,  from  start to finish.    Beginning  with  Rabbi   Kaplanskys heartfelt  message , Stans son and grandsons emotional  words ,  Arlenes message,  the  beautiful  music sung by the extraordinary , Cantor  and  Stans own words and message.  Powerful,   moving and so true. This was so befitting  for a wonderful man.   I  was  a casual  friend  of  Stans   that  too was in the insurance  industry.   Like many other agents we all looked up to Stan, and tried to emulate  him. He was and will always remain an icon  in our industry.  To Stans family  and friends  my heartfelt  condolences.  He will  never be  forgotten.

Our deepest condolences to the entire Towerman family on your loss. Stan was one of God's finest, and I am fortunate to have been his friend. He will be missed by so many, but never forgotten. 

Bless you all. 
Jim Bahlinger and Meadowbrook C.C.

I always  said Mr. Towerman could sell ice to an Eskimo. He was the consummate gentleman. Always a smile.  I first met Stan as a young banker.  He once tried to sell me life insurance, I told him I had enough ins. He replied does your wife have any? He closed the sale. We still have the policy 30 years later.  I had the pleasure of seeing Stan at Meadowbrook CC and he always made my day. Good bless.

Jim

Blessed is the life force within us even in the worst of times.
Like the dew on the grass, it renews and restores.
We pray:
May courage come.
Let dark fears be gone with morning's light.
Let grief give way to confidence and new hope.

My thought and prayers are with you and your family.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family. Stan was an amazing person I met through the insurance industry. The most upbeat and personable person I have ever known. Truly a gentleman that will be missed!

I was lucky enough to meet and become friends with  Mr. Towerman at BUI where I worked for 10 years.
He was a lovely, kind man. My fondest memory was this…

I lost my husband suddenly,  when I returned to work Mr. Towerman came in the office and asked to see me. 
He sat with me and talked, gave me a hug and a book that he said  helped him with the grieving process. 
Every time he came in after he would ask how I was doing, such a kind man. 

He often told me to call him Stan but I never did. He deserved all the respect  that went along with calling him Mr. Towerman.  I feel very lucky to have known him. He will be missed! ❤️

Dear Craig, Michael and Robyn...I am so sorry to hear about your dad. He and your mom were such sweet people. I remember them from our days on Parkway Drive, and your house backed onto the Bierman's (our next-door neighbors.) 

May they rest in peace.
