What a loss.Stan - you were kind and generous, with a warm and welcoming smile. Your maturity, experience, and commitment to mental health nursing were so clear, and made such an impression on colleagues, friends and students.

I first got to know Stan on the picket lines where he was a regular and resolute face. Stan was passionate about fighting injustices and working for safer, better working conditions, often motivated by a sense of solidarity with those less fortunate than himself. Mostly, though, I remember Stan as being always welcoming with a ready smile, a funny comment, or a pep talk. He was a warm person, and he will be missed by those whose lives he touched. Rest in peace, Stan, the fight is over for you now.

I remember when Stan joined us at City, from South Bank. A hugely warm, calm man with a lovely smile and laugh. A gentle, thoughtful man and seeing photos of him just breaks my heart. On hearing of his sad death, I have had messages from former colleagues at the Institute of Psychiatry, from the Maudsley, and from former students who said that they would not have completed their mental health nurse training had it not been for him. Many others have said how much they valued his academic work, especially around medications management and his books are recommended to their students. Like many others, I have very fond memories of Stan on the picket lines in the freezing cold in Myddleton Street. Smiling. Thank you Stan. I miss you more then you would know. Alan

Stan, I knew you for four years and have many good memories of the time spent working with you, I want to share the things that I admired and will miss about you the most: Your ability to captivate and inspire a lecture hall full of students. Your sense of fairness and wanting to give every student the best chance to succeed. Your doggedness in arguing for better working conditions for staff and making the workplace a safer place to be. Your sense of humour and the many laughs shared with the team. Your intelligence and our chats about how to make the world a nicer place. Your respectfulness for other people’s achievements and always being the first person to say ‘well done’. Such a kind, caring and supportive colleague, you will be much missed. My thoughts are with your family at this sad time. RIP Stan xx

When I heard Stan was in critical care, my first thought was "He is one of the strongest people I know, he will fight and win this!". I am still in disbelief he is gone. Stan was one of the warmest and approachable people I ever met, he would always make you feel welcome and appreciated. Welfare of his colleagues and students was his passion and priority. I remember he would walk past my desk in the evenings at Myddleton Street and tell me "to get home to my daughter!". We talked about our children and how proud a father he was; he always said that his children were his best achievement in life. I last saw him in before Christmas during an exam for the non-medical prescribing module; we couldn't even take our masks off to wish each other happy holidays but we promised that we would have a team outing to celebrate the end of such a difficult year when we get back together. We will have that drink in your memory Stan and you will still be amongst us! Rest in peace my dear friend!

Hey Stan I cant believe you are gone. You were my brother, comrade and friend. One of the best. I will miss you terribly. As I think about you I reflect on our conversations about politics, our chats about our kids and I will remember fondly our joint teaching sessions with the students - who looked up to you so much, who rightly saw you as a fantastic role model. Your commitment to your working colleagues and fellow UCU union members was noted by everyone - You sacrificed so much to defend our pensions and conditions - You will be remembered for your principles and kind character - for your lack of judgement of others and your ability to rise above stuff and see the bigger picture and the more important things in life. You will be remembered as an immensely fun man. Your beautiful laugh will stay with us when we think of you. All my love and thoughts and best wishes are with Jo Anna, James, Rebecca and Tamira. Chris

This picture was taken after we'd spent a chilly day together on the picket lines in 2019 and we'd finally found some sunshine. I've posted this picture because I know how incredibly important Stan's Union (UCU) role was to him and to the people he supported in this role. It showcased his strong values and willingness to support others and have difficult conversations if this could lead to a better outcome. Stan, you've been an absolutely wonderful friend, colleague and comrade all rolled into one. You have always had such a great presence - your bright smile lifted people around you and I often caught you giggling away to a colleague about something and nothing. I've learnt so much from you over the years. A colleague reminded me today, that we'll probably find ourselves when in need of some sound advice asking 'what would Stan do/say in this situation?' We're going to miss you terribly but I will hold close to me all the great times we had together. May the sun continue to shine on you. Rest well x

I was new to City when I first met Stan on the steps of the Myddelton Street building in the cold strikes of 2018. We were all freezing during those snowy strikes but Stan always had a smile and a joke for everyone and was the best at bringing everyone together and feeling a part of something. During these times Stan would talk to me about his children and how proud he was of them (especially that they were boycotting their own lectures during the strikes!!). Stan was one of the people that made me feel welcome at City when it all felt so new and daunting. We continued to strike together over the next few years and I joined Stan as a UCU rep in SHS - he, of course, always did more work than me around this role and knew far more than me about Union issues. He was relentless in his pursuit of trying to make good working conditions for staff and he personally helped me when I was going through a tough time in my job last year. Stan, I can't really believe you are gone and I will miss you immensley. I hope you have gone to a beautiful place. To his family, I am so sorry for your loss and I cannot begin to fathom what you must be going through. Sending you my love and thoughts. Jessie xxxx

Getting lost along the corridors within the buildings of City University was a regular thing for me. I first met Stan on one of those days in 2018. I stopped him to ask for direction, and he said: "come with me, I'd lead the way, maybe we can find your lecture room". I had no idea that I was rushing to attend his tutorial. His sense of humour was unique, although he was a no-nonsense tutor. His class was always interactive because he enabled students to explore different thinking pathways to enhance learning. I later found out that Stan was my personal tutor. He was kind and supportive; he would make himself available despite his busy schedules. My last meeting with him was a telephone conversation when completing my PAD was very challenging, and he was there to support me. It was a privilege to know him. Dear Dr Stan, I thought you would be here when I finish my course to tell you how I transferred knowledge from 'the public health walk' (health inequality & social determinants of health) to the 'communities & health' module. I hoped to explain how tapping into people's lived experiences helped me to embrace a compassionate attitude towards care in practice, but you are now gone. May your soul rest in perfect peace. I pray to God to strengthen your family at this difficult time.

I first met Stan while working on one of his programmes at City back in 2018. I was always struck by his clear dedication to his profession and by the love he had for his family. He always had time to say hi and to chat - even if he was extremely busy. Put simply, he was one of the 'good guys'.

Stan and I sat next to each other at City for a while. My fondest memories of him were when he pushed back his chair and we shared the joys and occasional frustrations of being parents of three and parents of twins. He was so immensely proud of his children's achievements. The tales of his sometimes mis-spent youth were also deeply entertaining. Sleep well x

I first met Stan a million or so years ago in the mid 1980s when I was a student and he was a staff nurse at Runwell Hospital, Essex. He was a tall skinny beanpole with a very stylish '80s moustache. It was an old out-of-town asylum hospital with not much beyond the grounds which meant everyone spent their evenings in the staff social club then back to the nurses' home to carry on the party. We might have done some work as well. Couldn't believe it when we bumped into each other at City 30 years later and got to carry on the conversation. So glad to have known such clever, thoughtful and endlessly kind man.

Stan, you were up there with the best. Your great good humour, and good sense, the generousity and commitment you brought to your work - everyone has said it all here, you leave a huge gap at City. We will continue to think of you, and wish that you had had more time, both to fight and to rest. Rest well now xx
