Stanley K. Sheinbaum’s family brought him home to Santa Barbara last month to the dramatic oceanfront bluff that sits just south of the Bird Refuge. It’s a majestic location, with a panoramic view of the Channel Islands and the silver-blue Pacific stretching seemingly infinitely beyond.
Stan turned 96 in June, and this bluff — in the Santa Barbara Cemetery — will now be his final home, in the family plot he and his wife, Betty, picked out years ago.
The two of them hadn’t lived full-time here for quite some time before his death, but there’d never been a question about where he’d return when this moment came.
