Stanley Lis

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Stanley Lis, who departed this world unexpectedly on September 2, 2026. Born on October 12, 1950, in the vibrant city of Chicago, Stanley lived a life rich in love, laughter, and cherished family moments. Stanley was a man of many passions, but none as enduring as his love for books and old movies. An avid reader, he could often be found with a book in hand, lost in the pages of a captivating story. His appreciation for classic cinema was equally renowned, as he spent countless hours enjoying films that captured the golden age of Hollywood. His quick wit and humor were legendary, even if his jokes often earned groans more than laughs. Stanley had a unique ability to light up a room with his presence, always ready with a playful quip or a warm smile. Yet, it was his unwavering pride in his family that truly defined him. Stanley found immense joy in bragging about his beloved children and grandchildren, sharing their accomplishments with anyone who would listen. Stanley was predeceased by his devoted wife, Linda, and their cherished children, Maria Louise, Renee Pryor, and Mark Lis. His grandchildren, Kaylee Pryor and Jake Lis, were the apples of his eye, and he spoke of them with a boundless affection that only a proud grandfather could possess. While Stanley's physical presence is no longer with us, his spirit will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew and loved him. His memory will live on through the stories we share, the laughter we remember, and the love that will never fade. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made to a charity of your choice, honoring Stanley's generous spirit and his lifelong commitment to helping others. May Stanley Lis rest in peace, surrounded by the timeless stories and films he so adored, and the eternal love of his family.
