  2. We have just read of Stan’s passing and are offering our dearest sympathies to the Pfaff family. My family lived across the road for over 50 years and he was a perfect neighbor. Always offering help when needed. Master gardener he was and a super individual. He’s with his son, Mike, and Butch and Ruthie, Mom and Dad.
