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!
