At the age of 26 his journey with cancer started, and he fought it hard for 35 years. He was always cheerful and never complained about his lot in life. He had the gift of an encourager.
His greatest joy was his son, Anthony "Andy," and granddaughters, Peyton and Paige Armstrong. In his granddaughter's words, he was the "Best Papaw."
Stan loved and worshiped the Lord and served Him faithfully. He was a member of Zionsville Fellowship Church in Zionsville, IN.
An avid Indianapolis Colts fan, Stan held season tickets since 1994.
He is survived by his wife, Linda S. Armstrong; his son, Anthony "Andy" (Jennifer) Armstrong; two granddaughters, Peyton and Paige Armstrong; two sisters, Nina (Carl) Crane and Rebecca (David) Merritt, all of Lebanon; and a brother, J. Edward (Kim) Armstrong of Brownsburg. He leaves behind many cousins, nieces, nephews, friends and a loving church family.
In addition to his parents, Stan was preceded in death by a brother, William E. Armstrong. He was loved and will be missed by all who knew him.
