It was never going to be a memorial to or otherwise honor Stan. The idea was to erect a statue honoring all Canal fishermen, to give the walking/biking tourists--and not incidently, the town--the importance of Canal fishermen to the local economy. They selected an image of Stan for the person on the statue, but 98% of the people who see it will have no idea who it is. I was told at the spring BBQ that the name of the Stan Gibbs Cape Cod Canal Fishermen's Classic won't even appear on the pedestal.
