To know Stewart, was to love him. He had an infectious smile, always happy as a clam, and blue eyes that could charm the socks off anyone. Growing up, he was active in church, sports, and Boy Scouts.

He graduated from Morehead State University in 2016 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Earth Systems Science with an emphasis in Geology.
