They have ministered to four churches, all in southern Indiana.
Brownstown, Indiana, is now home to Stan and Jane. Jane was raised in Indianapolis by Christian parents and has two sisters, Nancy and Debbie, and one brother, Jim.
Jane and Stan have two sons, James and Larry. On October 15, 2008, Jim, forty years old, passed away due to complications of cancer. Larry and his wife, Margie, live nearby. He is the father of Jane’s twin granddaughters, Emyrald and Teia. Jim left them two grandchildren, Blake and Jenna. Jim's wife, Diana, also lives nearby.
Stan often babysat the grandchildren while Jane worked as a secretary. She couldn’t witness the fun times they had together. Stan would take them on church calls, and something always happened. At the end of the day, he would tell Jane what was said or done and she would jot it on a piece of paper, put it in a file, and then dream about writing a book someday. Things like these are quickly forgotten, and she wanted to remember and also to remind the grandchildren of the joy and laughter they gave to her.ver menos
