He was born July 16, 1952, in Michigan City, Indiana, to Stanley and Jean (Bither) Kozlowski.

 

Stanley graduated from New Buffalo High School in 1970. He worked at Allis-Chalmers in La Porte, up until it was closed down, after he drove for Brown Inc./Bulk Transport until his retirement. Stanley owned Joe’s Bar & Grill for twenty-five years until it was sold. He was a member of the John Franklin Miller American Legion Post 37, and was the founding member of Four A’s Car Club. Stanley loved remodeling or building anything and enjoyed his antique cars. He was considered the hardest working, kindest loving person that you could ever ask for.

He is God’s angel now.
