My heartfelt condolences go out to friends and family. I started working with Stu about 3 years ago. It was always a pleasure and provided a great service. We had a Cape Cod connection that we use to reminisce about.
I, unfortunately, never got to meet Stu face to face. But that doesn't matter. I'm glad I got to know him. He will be missed.

I had the privilege of working with Stu for over 12 years as a client. He called me MB and I felt like I knew him although we never got the chance to meet. RIP to a special man. My Prayers are with his family and all who were loved and touched by him.

My sincere condolences to the entire family. I have worked with Stu for almost 23 years and can't think of a more stand up guy. Passionate about family, work, sports and customers. Always willing to go the extra mile and can remember a visit from MN to NJ and Stu would roll out the red carpet. He'd have a car arranged to pick you up from the airport, have lunch ready for you at Shawnee and take care of getting you back to the airport. True class act. Very fortunate to consider him a friend and will be missed greatly. RIP Stu

I have had the great honor to call Stu my friend and brother for over 50 years. Our memories together are countless and priceless. Through Stu, I became friends with his brother Steve and his wife Donna. What an honor to have Stu as my best man, and both Steve and Donna in my wedding party. Stu will always be remembered as a wonderful man, kindhearted and an incredible father and husband. I love you brother and may you rest in peace.

Stu and I met through work. He was a vendor, customer and most importantly a friend. We spent a lot of talking about his kids and their athletic endeavors. We trash talked about golf but most importantly we always laughed with and at each other. My company Empire Freight and myself will think of Stu daily. Prayers to his kids and wife.

In reflecting on our beloved "Stu" of 27 years, we find solace in the memories of his infectious laughter that echoed in our company, turning mundane moments into cherished ones. Stu's strength was a quiet force that steadied us through storms, and his kindness was a beacon of light that brightened even the toughest day. His empathy formed an unspoken bond, making each of us feel seen and valued. Let's hold on to the countless memories of joy and camaraderie, forever grateful for the privilege of sharing our days with such a remarkable soul.
To Lorraine, Elzie & Ryan, as you navigate this difficult time, please know that our collective hearts extend a warm embrace to you. In this shared grief, we stand united, offering our continued support and heartfelt condolences. Stu was not just a colleague but a cherished member of our extended family here at Shawnee.
Stu will forever be in our hearts and will be missed by all. Rest In Peace our friend!!!!!
With all of our love and support,

Stu was my friend since Kindergarten, and we remained great friends to this day. In third grade he was the pitcher and I was his catcher for our championship little league team CO-OP that’s when we really became greatest of friends. We played endless games of stickball and any sport we could think of till dark. In High school Stu was pretty rebellious even voted “most wanted by the office”. However, Stu always had a quality that people were attracted to, he was handsome and funny but also very smart. The chicks dug him, with his curly blonde locks and Robert Plant looks. He would visit me at College, stealing (borrowing) the Kulite company car and all my college buddies would say, “your friend Stu was a really cool guy” and I would be so proud. In his early twenties (the 80’s) we ran Ransack down in Manasquan in the summers and Stu was the man, always in the middle of the good times, laughs and partying. We all survived it with no regrets. Soon after Stu met Ridgefield cutie Lorraine and he was ready to settle down and start a family. That’s when Stu really stepped up and became the best husband and father anyone has ever seen. He adored his children Elsie and Ryan and that was first priority going forward. He became what he is today a real Mensch( yiddish). I’m glad I
got the chance to tell him how proud I was of the man he became and he inspired me to be a better husband and father. My friend I will never forget you till we meet again. Love you man !!!

My sincere condolences to the entire family. I have worked with Stu off and on for almost 30 years. He was a true professional and cared about his customers. My memory of Stu is his love for the Yankees, and baseball, He had a great sense of humor, and witty, sarcasm. He was a standup, and honest guy. Picked me up at the airport, on my visits to New York City, and dropped me off at my hotel twice. He will be missed. RIP Stu!

I am so saddened by the news of Stu's passing. Although we were friends through business for over 25 years I can say you were a true friend. I feel like I know your Family through the countless stories going back to the elf on the shelf. Thankfully i did not have one when my kids were young. I know i would never remember to move it.... We would talk about my boys and Ryan playing ball and how we loved watching them. It never got old. He loved his family and always spoke highly of them. Last time we spoke about Elizabeth and how he was proud of her and i said it is always great to have a nurse for a daughter so you have someone who can care for you when you get old. He couldn't imagine that but I have no doubt she would do anything for you.
You were a rare breed and a true gentlemen.
My deepest condolences to Lorraine, Elizabeth and Ryan and your entire family.
RIP my friend you will be missed
