Stosh and I would go a year without speaking or seeing each other and every time we’d make contact it was catch up time. We’d stand and chat for an hour or more. Yet it was so familiar. That feeling like we see each other every day and we’re the closest friends. Stosh always made me feel appreciated. He would give anyone the shirt off his back. My thoughts and prayers are with you Angelique, Desiree, and Tommy. Xoxo

Stosh was one of a kind, a great friend who was always there to help and didn’t ask for anything, it didn’t matter if you didn’t see him for a long time he’s one of them people you could pick up right where you left off….. he will be truly missed….. RIP STOCH❤️❤️❤️❤️

There are way too many memories to type here. I know that we will all keep your memories alive. I just keep hearing you saying in my head “come on now”. You were one of a kind! You would always say my house is cursed, but you always found a way to fix things and make light of the worst situations. You always made me laugh. It’s never going to be the same without you. You truly will be missed. Love you always.
