The Silva family..
Stan carried around a stack of two dollar bills. Everytime he saw a child under five years old, he gave the child a two dollar bill with some words of wisdom. He was a very kind, giving man. Stan truly made this world a better place.
Rest in peace cousin Stan. I am so grateful for getting the chance to rekindle our relationship through your amazing son and my Dad. Though I am so very sad to see you leave this earth I am happy that. You will be with your wife, mother, father, grandparents, uncles . They are all there with you and someday I will see you again. I love you . Rest in paradise.
My most sincere condolences to the family!
May God give you the strength to get through this difficult time of grief, my thoughts and prayers are with you all.
With much love.

Stan has been a great brother and loved all people;his family and friends being the most important. He was nonjudgmental, very funny, used his wit to lighten the stress of a tough situation, and never held a grudge. If you ever asked Stan how he was doing his immediate response would be ‘great’, awesome’, or ‘wonderful’. He did not allow negativity to take away his joy….no matter how bad his situation may have been. I have sssooo many memories and stories of Stan and I am heartbroken for having lost him so early and so swiftly.
Judge Payton my prayers for you and your Children and I Have no words that can lessen your pain, but I know God in his time will help you heal the wound the departure of your Dad has left you. God is the balm that heals all wounds. You have become like Family and my Children and I were honored to have met your father. May God continue to heal you.
Praying for you all!
I will never forget Stan. During high school we would gather at the house. Stan would often be in the back by his office and we would talk for hours. He was sharp and quick witted. He would challenge me to backup my ideas and never let me get away with lazy thinking. We would all gather together in the den. I would watch him laugh and smile with Lori and family. There was so much love and kindness. The time would always go so fast, slipping into the late hours but always so much fun. I always thought we would have had just one more night all of us together. Life has a way of moving too fast before you are ready. I am not ready for Stan to be gone and miss him terribly.

JP, If there wasn’t so much love for your father, it wouldn’t be this hard to say goodbye. My thoughts are with you my friend. If you need anything please let me know! I’m so sorry for your loss!
