Burke Stewart of Longmont, Colorado passed away on August 26, 2015 at the age of 50, after battling cancer for many years. He was the son of Justin Stewart and Jo Ann (Cummins) Stewart of Morgan Hill, California. Burke graduated Live Oak High School in Morgan Hill and attended Gavilan College in Gilroy, California. He was the owner/operator of Mile High Remodeling in Longmont. Burke moved to the Longmont area in 1992 and married his beloved wife Sony Ralston on November 19, 1994 in Pinewood Springs, Colorado. They had three wonderful children; Kiley Lynea Stewart, 20; Lexey Kate Stewart, 17; and Christian Blake Stewart, 13. Burke adored his children and Sony and was beyond proud of his family. He had strong faith in God and shared the Word of Christ with everyone he encountered. Burke enjoyed fishing, camping, and being outdoors, especially in summer. He was a meticulous professional remodeler and took great pride in doing a job to perfection. He raised pigeons as a hobby, enjoyed gardening, loved the ocean, was a food enthusiast (Mexican food and a great prime rib were particular favorites); but most of all, he enjoyed spending time with his family. He was preceded in death by his infant son Jared Kenneth Stewart; both sets of grandparents; his cousin Jeff Cummins; his father-in-law Kenneth, Kenneth's twin brother Keith, and their sister Cheryl.Burke is survived by his wife Sony and their children Kiley, Lexey and Christian Stewart; his mother Jo Ann and father Justin Stewart of Morgan Hill, CA; his sister Alycia Kuehne and her husband Ben and their children Athena, Addison and Ashton all of Texas; his mother-in-law Andrea Ralston of Longmont; his grandmother-in-law Louise Ralston of Longmont; brother-in-law Ken Ralston and wife Shanna of Corpus Christi, Texas; goddaughter Ansley Fleischmann of New Braunfels, Texas and many relatives and friends as well, too many to mention. Burke was an outgoing, funny, happy man who really never met anyone he didn't like or want to start up a conversation with.
