My heart goes out to Stewarts Family and his wife. I knew Stewart for many years working with him at pioneer astro. I have many fond memories of Stu. I wish i could have kept in contact with him when I left pioneer. I did run into him several years after pioneer and was very excited to see him. Stewart I will always remember you in my prayers and thoughts. May the Lord shelter you and keep you through all eternity until we see each other again.
