Default Monthly Stock Return Volatility

I have a time series data contains two columns. (example as below) It records
stocks' daily return for 6 year period. What I am interested is to find out
the monthly return volatility presented by standard deviation. Therefore, my
first monthly return volatility will be =stdev(B2:b21). I can do this
manually each month for 6 year (6*12=72 times) and repeat for another stock.
Can anyone help me to simplify the process?

Date Return
1/4/1999 0.010539721
