To My Sons Todd and Adam,

Your father loved both of you more than you will ever know. I will always remember the complete joy he felt the day you were born.

I know how much you miss dad.

Dad was a good man as evidenced by the other entries in this guest book. May you find comfort in knowing how much you were loved by your father.

As a client, I felt comfortable and confident that Stu handled my concerns with rock-solid professional wisdom and appropriate creativity. I knew him for only about two years, but he was a delight to be with and correspond with. He was also an inveterate night owl, which meant I could get an answer to an email even at 10 p.m. California time. I will miss him and feel bereft of the chance to tell him how happy I was to know him.

Stewart Cohen and I both worked in Harold Washington College's Business Department from 1976 through 1980. We worked together again in 1998 through HWC's Distance Learning Dept. He was always a dedicated and very fine Professor - He will be truly missed.
