In keeping with his positive view of life, Stan found happiness a second time and shared his final 12 plus years with Ramona “Mona” Torres Alcon.  They enjoyed trips to Disneyland and to the casinos, watching Sci-Fi movies and celebrating with family and friends, especially during Halloween and Christmas.

 Stan was predeceased by his mother, father, first wife, step-father Manuel Garcia and brother James Dean Alcon.

Daniel Fong

December 3, 1949 - September 4, 2018

Daniel, the third child of Suey Lung Fong and Florence Lum Fong, was born in Stockton on December 3, 1949. Although he had learning disabilities, he was still able to have a very meaningful life. As a volunteer driver he traveled everywhere throughout the greater Stockton area, always ready to help people who needed transportation. He drove people to their medical appointments, to do errands and shopping, and to and from their jobs. For this work he received a Certificate of Recognition from the California Legislature Assembly. Every month he delivered commodities through a Knights of Columbus program.

Daniel liked everyone and always saw the best in them. He was a member of Peace and Justice, the Chinese Sister Cities group, the Knights of Columbus, and a Hispanic Justice Group, and received many awards for his service.

Daniel was proudest of his part in establishing the S.L. Fong Park in the Blossom Ranch part of Stockton. His pride was twofold: because it recognized his father's own years of service to the Stockton Chinese community, and because it was a recognition of the part that Chinese and other immigrants played in the history of Stockton.

A Celebration of Daniel's Life will take place on Sunday, September 16th at 2 pm at the Vineyard Chapel at the Cherokee Memorial Park in Lodi. In lieu of flowers, the family would prefer donations to the Daniel S.L. Fong Scholarship at San Joaquin Delta College (Box 111, 5151 Pacific Avenue, Stockton, CA. 95207). Scholarships from the fund will be awarded to Asians who are entering fields in the health sciences.
