There was a special dedication to his memory by Adam Sandler that appeared in the end credits to the latter's film
50 First Dates (2004)
which reads: "This movie is dedicated to Stanley Sandler. My father, my
mentor, my teacher, my coach, my idol, my hero, my family's leader, my
mom's best friend, and by far the coolest guy I will have ever known.
We will miss you every day, but we will always try to make you
proud.".
