Stanley Miles Weiland Jr. ’51

Stan died of cancer Feb. 14, 1997. He was a beloved figure in the San Francisco Bay Area, having moved there from New Haven in 1967 to become Connecticut Mutual Life's general agent. He later cofounded San Francisco Pension Corp. with his wife, Elaine, and then cofounded Weiland Benefit Services with daughter Jodi McFarland. Stan was a CLU and CFP, a member of the Million Dollar Roundtable, and president of the San Francisco planning council. He retired in 1996.

Stan came to Princeton from Cranford [N.J.] H.S. He graduated cum laude from the SPIA. Among his many campus activities were varsity track, Cottage Club, and the Student Christian Assn. He roomed with Jack Reydel, Chuck Weeden, and Dave Van Vleck. He afterwards went to the Harvard Business School.

Stan loved Princeton and the class. Last year he received the first W. C. Van Siclen '43 Award from the Princeton Club of Northern California. He and Elaine planned and executed the class's memorable mini in San Francisco in 1993.

In grateful thanks for the help given Stan by Memorial Sloan-Kettering Center, his family asks that memorial donations go to the Center, 1275 York Ave., NY, NY 10021. Stan is also survived by daughters Tricia Shoemaker and Liz Weimer, seven grandchildren, and his brother, Peter '55. He was truly one of nature's noblemen. The class extends its deep sympathy.
