He loved snow skiing and water skiing. After moving to Utah he got snow ski equipment for everyone in the family and started taking them skiing.

We would boat out to a spot and set up camp at Lake Powell. Our kids learned how to camp. He also loved to visit National Parks and hike and canoe.

Stuart was a very hard worker and had a tough schedule while in Chiropractic college. Some semesters he would take 25 credits. He didn’t take summers off from school. He loved helping people with the health of their body without drugs or surgery. That was a huge part of who he was. He kept taking classes and seminars and getting certified in different techniques. He also had a radio show for 10 years about health and healing with natural means. He would invite some of his patients to speak on his show on how they improved their health with his care.

He really lived what he taught as far as diet and exercise. His breakfast consisted of a large bowl of steamed vegetables and boiled eggs.
