Stewart had recently travelled to London from his home in Northern Ireland for the funeral of John Mallinson. Some days after whilst still in London, Stewart fell ill and very sadly passed away in hospital last weekend.
Stewart will be fondly remembered by club members for his amazing repertoire of songs with which he entertained many into the wee small hours – particularly back in our Horsenden Hill days. Stewart played at the club in the 1970 & 80s and was a well known figure, more recently he was a regular attendee at 1871 lunches.
All at the Club extend our sympathies to Stewart’s family.
Les O’Gorman – Hon Secretary
