My Condlences to Stanley's (my nephew) family and friends - especially Beverly, who was there with him throughout his illness. He was a sweet little boy with beautiful "gray" eyes which was noticed by everyone; loving young man. He grew up with my family early in life - He loved our mother(MOM May). I'm going to miss him! But, I know he's at peace and happy to be with his Mother (Sallie and grandmother "Mom May"). God's grace and mercy was upon him! Aunt Georgia
