Stanley Gene Ambrose

Stanley Gene Ambrose, 67, of Canton, Ga., passed away Tuesday, June 30, 2026. Born in Morgantown July 20, 1958, he was the son of the late Margaret Alberta Ambrose and Tony Ambrose.
Stan is survived by his beloved wife, Rebecca Carros Ambrose; his daughters, McKenna, Mallory, and Macy Ambrose; and his siblings, Robert (Karen) Ambrose; Antonette (Press) Gray; and Anthony (Leslie) Ambrose.
Stan worked as an athletic trainer, medical sales representative, and financial advisor with Morgan Stanley. While he enjoyed a successful career, his greatest accomplishment was being a devoted husband and father.
A proud “girl dad,” Stan coached his daughters’ basketball teams and brought joy to everyday life with his humor and willingness to do anything for a smile, including wearing painted fingernails and letting his girls style his hair. He loved cooking and grilling for family and friends, playing golf, watching the History Channel, following current events, and listening to music, often making up his own lyrics.
A lifelong sports fan, Stan faithfully cheered for the West Virginia Mountaineers and the Georgia Bulldogs along with the Atlanta Braves.
He will be remembered for his laughter, unwavering love for his family, and the countless memories he leaves behind.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations, in Stan’s memory, to the American Heart Association.
