Tommy Ray Stanley, 52, of Highlands, TX, went to be with the Lord Sunday, November 8, 2015, with his loving family by his side.
He graduated from Sterling High School in 1981 and as a young man enjoyed dirt track racing at Big H and Battleground Speedways where he won multiple track championships. In 1983 he and Carla, the love of his life, were married. He later stopped racing to coach little league and youth sports for his children. He was a volunteer for Highlands Fire Dept. and retired from Exxon after 23 years of service.
