Stanley Lehman, peacefully said his final goodbye on May 11, 2026 surrounded by family and encircled with love.
He was born October 13, 1929, in Brooklyn, NY, and moved his family to Tucson in 1970 with the hope of improving the health of his beloved wife Renaye (Ricki).
They spent 60 years of love and devotion to each other and he taught his family the legacy of commitment and philanthropy.

His family will forever remember him as a man who led with generosity and who always put ‘family first.
