People, places and things!
Stanley Dean (Stan) Grimes passed away on Sept. 9, 2011. Stanley was the fourth of
seven children born to Otha & Cora Grimes. Stan was born on August 25, 1940 in
Phoenix, AZ. Raised in the Matthew Henson housing projects, Stan dedicated his life to
community involvement. Stan was a distinguished entrepreneur, and as a developer of
Paradise Shadows, a low-income apartment complex, he was proud of the fact that
Paradise Shadows was one of the first two government-sponsored developments in the
United States. “The idea is to give a decent place to live to working people” was one of
his favorite comments regarding Paradise Shadows. Stan was the Arizona State
Chairman for blacks for Regan-Bush ’84, and along with his wife Dorothy, were invited to the Inaugural Ball on
January 21, 1985 in Washington, D.C. Stan was an active member of the West Buckeye Neighborhood
Assn., and a founding member of the Paul Laurence Dunbar Black Alumni Assn. Stan leaves to cherish his
memory his wife Dorothy, daughters Donna Grimes & Nina Grime of San Francisco, CA, and Lynn Grimes of
Sacramento, CA., sons Darryl Plunkett (Linda) of Chicago, IL, & Stan Grimes Jr. (Abigail) of Sydney, Australia.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Grimes family during their time of sorrow.
CONGRATULATIONS!
