Well known in the community as the owner of the Pickle Barrel and Bubba Luigi Restaurants, Stewart worked endlessly to support and raise funds for some of his favorite causes which included the Ronald McDonald House, Toys for Tots, Make a Wish Foundation, and the Chennault Aviation and Military Museum. Never one to shy away from a political discussion, he was profoundly patriotic and delighted in making the US Marine Band performances available to our community for many years.
He was a member of Lea Joyner Memorial United Methodist Church.
