Although Stacy was my Uncle he only had me by 5 years. So my earliest memory of Stacy was more of a big brother. We moved from the Norfolk area when I was young and the next time I had the opportunity to spend time with Stacy was in the late 70's while in the service. Stacy always had an open door, an open heart,... and a fishing rod... It did not matter if it was 2 days or 20 years between visits Stacy always made me know I was family. I know that you have a angel in heaven and believe me, 2 days or 20 years he will still be watching over and taking care of those he loves. Love you Uncle Stacy -- Thanks Posted by: Forrest Kinsey at February 13, 2009 12:03 AMMy deepest sympathy on the passing of your husband.
