I went to high school with Stewart. He was always nice to me .when high school was over and I was going through a divorce Stewart and a few other of our friends helped me through that hard time he was funny and just a all around good guy.It is hard to find people like him anymore I am so sorry for lost his family and friends we shared as children and adults .prayers for you all God Bless
I am so very sorry, Sandy and Ray, and for Stewart's wife, children, and all of his family and friends. I have only happy memories of Stewart. One is when we were attending UCA at the same time. Someone drove past me in a dark truck and began whistling. I ignored him, but he kept doing it. When the truck stopped, I saw Stewart get out, with a mischievous grin. He said, "Hey, cousin!" He made me laugh each time I saw him. He was so handsome and happy, and had a great sense of humor. I am praying that all the good memories will flood your minds and hearts, and that God provides comfort for you all as only He can.
Love,
Andrea Hankins Glenn
