Born on July 20, 1942, in Pittsburgh to Hyman and Betty Klein (of blessed memory), Stanley graduated from Allderdice High School in 1960 and joined the Army. After the Army, Stanley attended Youngstown State College. Thereafter, he met his first wife Terry Stern (of blessed memory). Stanley and his Father-in-Law, Irving Stern (of blessed memory) went into business together and founded Multi-Flow Dispensers of Ohio.
Stanley dedicated his life to his family and his passion for business, cars and boats. Over the past 60+ years, Stanley grew Multi-Flow into the dominant soft drink syrup and beverage dispensing business for bars, restaurants and taverns throughout North and Central Ohio. Multi-Flow not only thrived but also became a respected name known for its unwavering commitment to quality and customer service. Stanley 'entrepreneurial spirit and vision shaped the company into a leader in its field, and he proudly watched it grow for over 60 years. Stanley was very proud as the next generation of the Klein family assumed stewardship of Multi-Flow and its affiliated companies.
Stanley was married to his wife Laura, for more than 44 years. Their marriage was a true partnership filled with love, laughter, and unwavering support for one another. Together, they raised four children, who carry forward Stanley’s values of hard work, kindness, and dedication. He cherished every moment spent with his family, especially his grandchildren, who were the light of his life.
Stanley P. Klein will be dearly missed but his spirit will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.
