August 11, 1939 – September 22, 2020

It is with great sadness that the family of Charles Leslie Stewart, aged 81, announce his passing on September 22, 2020.

He is survived by his loving wife Marguerite; children: Dawn (Jerry), Charles (Tracy), Anne (Rick), Yvette (Kevin), Cora (Dave) and Rose; his grandchildren: Hannah, Douglas, Victoria, James, Bailey, Alexander and many Pomeranians; all of his family – brothers: Bill, Glen Wayne (Darla), Brian (Lily), Dale (Lynn), Robert, David (Andrea), Wendel (Bernice); sisters: Fern, Delphi (Ed), Bonnie, Dory (Bruce), Charlene (Wes), Donna (Brenda), Pam (Raymond); nieces, nephews, and relatives, as well as his many friends from all across Canada.

Charles worked across Canada in Mines, on Ranches and in Logging. He always said that B.C. was the best one out of all of them. Charles loved to hunt, fish and tell stories of all he had seen and done. He had so many friends that he worked with or knew. Wherever he went in Canada someone would always say “I worked with your dad” or “Your dad was my friend we met here”.

We would like to say thank you to Dr. McLeod for all his help. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.

In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to the Heart and Stroke Foundation.

Forever in Our Hearts – we will miss you Dad.
