Loving Grace was purchased for the family of Stanley Craig Ferguson.
One of my favorite memories of Stan occurred on a family fishing trip to Kum Bac Cabins located in Wanless, Manitoba. I'm pretty sure Stan went with my family two summers in the early 60's. Stan loved to fish and you could catch lots of fish on Rocky Lake. We always had a competition to see who could catch the most fish and the biggest fish! Stan was 7 years older than I was during those summer trips. So, being the young boy that I was, I wanted to keep up with the older, taller teenager (Stan). We had been in the ice house, it felt good in there on hot days, skipped rocks, thought about going swimming, but the water was freezing cold, so just sat on the dock for awhile. It was time for something mischievous. There were two older, retired postmen from the states who spent the summers at the same cabins we did, only they slept in a truck camper. i'm pretty sure one was called Ol' Bill and the second was just Skeeter. Well these characters had a set of walkie talkies and several times a day they would turn them on and talk to each other. Well, Stan had brought his walkie talkies from home. We checked to see if we could hear Ol' Bill and Skeeter on Stan's set. Sure enough, we could hear them, so that meant they could hear us, too. We played jokes on those two guys for a few days until it was time to leave for home. The postmen never figured out who we were, so they said! God Bless You Stan!! (Jerry)
