His culinary career is long and well rounded, starting with working here in Jacksonville to becoming a Sous Chef in the Russian Tea Room in New York City. When he became an Executive Chef he started traveling up and down the East coast helping open new fine dining restaurants in places like Philadelphia, PA, Saint Augustine, FL, Stuart, FL, and in Costa Rica.

In the tradition of his beloved grandfather, Stacy was an avid “Gator” fan. Stacy was a good man, fun, the life of the party. You knew if you went to his house there would be good food, good drinks and good times to be had.
