Ray Anderson wrote a sympathy message

“Mr. Stewart was my 5th grade teacher at Whitman Elementary School in NJ. I’m now the proud principal of that school! Mr. Stewart was a caring man, a motivator, and just a fantastic guy. I loved being in his class and remember collecting milk bottles for his greenhouse! I will never forget the story about the thumbtacks! My condolences to the family. May Mr. Stewart Rest In Peace! -Ray Anderson”
