Stanley Earl Mays was born on May 5, 1962, in Jacksonville, Florida, to the late Vivian Mays and Lester Earl Mays. A proud native of Jacksonville, Stanley was deeply rooted in his community and carried those values with him throughout his life.
Stanley was a graduate of Sandalwood High School, where he began developing the strong work ethic and determination that would define his life. Following graduation, he embarked on a long and dedicated career with United Parcel Service (UPS), where he faithfully served for 35 years. Through his commitment, reliability, and professionalism, Stanley earned the respect of colleagues and customers alike before retiring.
Never one to slow down, Stanley went on to fulfill his entrepreneurial dreams by opening a family-owned business, Amaysing Express and Home Delivery Services LLC.

Stanley was preceded in death by his beloved parents, Vivian Mays and Lester Earl Mays, and his brothers, Keith Mays and Anthony Mays.
He leaves to cherish his memory his loving daughters, Tahvia Mays and Alexia Mays; his cherished grandchildren, Myiah Brooks, Brandon Brooks, and Amora Ervin; his siblings, Robert Lee Upson, Lester Mays, Denise Smith, and Sharon Mays (Curtis Denson); along with a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, extended family, and friends who will forever hold him close in their hearts.
