I was just thinking about going to see Stan then i heard the news. My family and I lived just down the road all my life and i would go and play with Matt. Once i got old enough to go to college i decided that i was going to go to a trade school called Perry Technical for instrumentation. My dad told me that stan was an instrument tech. so i went over to talk to stan and truth be told he is probably the only reason i followed through and actually went to college. He gave me many words of encouragement and an idea of what i was getting into.
I Thank You Stan Bird!

Matt, Annie, and family,
I am so sorry to hear about Rusty. He will be greatly missed. When we were little, I'd always say, he was the dad I wanted. I know it was only a few years, but those were some of the best times I can remember. Your dad was an amazing person and I wish I could have seen him before he passed away. Here's to you Rusty!!!
Dear Bud, Lucille, Annie, and family,
I am so sorry to hear about Rusty. He was always such a wonderful dad to all of us, and I will cherish all of the memories that I have with him and you all. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Wish we could be there.
