Stanley was born on March 29, 1928 in Calgary, Alberta. He was the youngest son of parents, Peter and Maria ‘Mary’ Hergert. Stanley’s parents immigrated to Canada in 1911 and started a farm in Olds, Alberta in 1930. He spent his youth on the family farm and attending school, completing his education in Calgary, Alberta. Stanley then returned to the farm working with his father and brother.

He married Ramona Routhier in 1973, and they purchased the family farm and started a family of their own. In 1976, they sold the family farm and moved to Penticton, British Columbia due to health issues. Missing the prairies, they returned to Red Deer, Alberta where Stanley worked as a realtor and then a home builder for several years, before retiring back to Penticton, British Columbia. They returned once more to Red Deer, Alberta to be closer to their children and grandkids.

Stanley enjoyed traveling, the outdoors, hunting, fishing, jet boating and spending time with his family and friends. He was an avid hobbyist, which included gunsmithing and wood working.
