I just learned of Stewart's passing. I had the pleasure of working with him as co-counsel on a case several years ago, and found him to not only be an excellent lawyer, but more importantly a good man. I am truly sorry to see this.

My condolences to Renee and children. I am so saddened as well as shocked to hear about Stewart's passing, as you know I worked for Stewart for many many years at Katten and we had remained friends all these years. Stewart was one of the best people I have ever known, he will truly be missed, this hurts me to my heart that he has passed . I wish I had known I would have definitely made his homegoing. Please know that my prayers are with the family if you need anything do not hesitate to reach out to you

I will always remember Stewart's kindness when he started at Katten. Stewart would always drive me home after staying late for him. We both lived in the same neighborhood. What we both had in common is that his Dad Stanley signed our birth certificates. Rest In Peace Stewart in with the Lord. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your beautiful family.

My deepest sympathies to Renee, Stewart's children, his father, brothers, sister and friends extended family. I am so shocked at this news. I am sorry I was unable to attend services. I worked with him for 6 years and there were many nights at the last hour 11:59 p.m. we were filing a brief. He always made sure I got home safely. There were highs and lows of the job but that is with anywhere you work and more so law firms. I pray for your family and may you find peace, strength, undying Faith, and courage with each passing day.

Our sincere condolences. Your father, son and friend Stewart served as our attorney in very tough times and was a savior to our family. We are out of the country and just heard this heartbreakingly sad news - otherwise we would have been there.

Peace be with all of you.

Our sincere condolences to all of you. You are in our thoughts and prayers. A memory that we have recounted that made us smile: we will always remember seeing Stew light up as he entered the gym, able to catch Billy's OYA basketball games (even though it often meant sitting in a raggedy, old folding chair at a small, school desk, working the timer because no one else wanted to do it! ) He seemed to love every moment!

With deepest Sympathy

January 13, 2018

God's Blessings to his children and his father and brothers. Stewart was like a son to me. We worked together on the PRCUA Constitution Committee and became close. He was a very loving person, and loved him I did. We helped each other in the loss of our loved ones, Stewart with his Mom and I with my grandson. We kept in touch, but not as often as of late. He loved his family and was very proud of them all. Be at peace my dear one, I will remember you always.
Forever in my heart, Sharon Haberski
