Sorry to hear about Stan's passing.  Stan and I 
were friends.  .

As both Stan and I wrote articles for Popular 
Electronics magazine, we were friends of 
Les Solomon, the PE technical editor. Les put 
me in touch with Stan, and we corresponded.  
Regretfully, I never was able to visit Stan's 
store in NYC.  Stan and I met when he attended 
a few of the ACGNJ meetings, while I was 
President of the group.  I think we also once 
met when he came to TCF.  Lennie, and I, 
visited with Stan last about 15 years ago, on 
one of our Florida trips.

I enjoyed his company and will miss him.

Sol
