I have known Stewart for over 30 years. He was a friendly and easy going spirit who had a few great passions that we both shared. He was an exceptional warehousing professional who knew lots about racking and lift machinery which is the backbone of the material handling industry. He helped me and members of the London Drugs team to grow our knowledge and effectiveness with material handling equipment and methodology. He would research and assist to find the best working solutions. He was a good golfer, (I am not), but I would gladly golf with Stewart as he would share great stories and the odd golf tip too. He played the drums, I play guitar. We would often talk about music when we were together. 

I am happy to remember Stewart as happily married and recently retired. He looked forward to living in Nanaimo. I was not able to visit him there. 

I send my heartfelt condolences to Stewart's wife and family. He left us too soon. I will tip a glass in Stewart's honour. He will be missed. When my band gets to play again we'll toast and sing "Skye Boat Song" my friend.

Stewart was a very good friend of mine and we spent a lot of time together both at golf and through work. Stewart's vast experience in Materials Handling and Storage was of great assistance when starting my company and we collaborated on many projects when I worked as a warehouse consultant. Our real passion, however, was for golf and music. Driving to Bandon Dunes golf course in Oregon on a number of occasions were true highlights as we listened avidly to each other's musical influences. On our first trip to Bandon, Stewart was walking up the first fairway and suddenly stopped and said: "Just look at this place! I thought you had to be in heaven to feel this good." I'm sure that is where you are now, Stewart, playing on the best courses and listening to your favorite music! 

I met Stewart through work and have fond memories of him.  I will always remember his generosity and kindness and of course his sense of humour!  Rest in peace Stewart.  My condolences to his family and friends.

Although I first met Stewart though work, we soon became golf buddies and played a lot of golf  together. There was always lots of laughter & fun when Stewart was in our group, and I treasure many great memories from this time. Condolences to Stewart's family & close friends.

Rest In Peace Stewart.  A leader in the material handling industry in the Lower Mainland of BC.   We  competed when he was with ARPAC  and Schaefer,  and worked together at Johnston Equipment and at the CMHDS (CMHDS.org)  where he sat as a Director.   Always with a smile and a laugh.  I enjoyed his  friendship and admired his quest for happiness.   Thanks for the memories.
