OBITUARY FOR ROBERT WILLIAM STEWART
Paisley Advocate, July 1954
A highly respected resident of this community, Robert William Stewart, passed away at the Bruce County Hospital, Walkerton, on Wednesday morning, July 14th, following an illness of two weeks duration. He was in his 72nd year.
He was born on the 14th Con. of Greenock Twp., the eldest son of the late Mr. and Mrs. W.T. Stewart. He attended SS #7 Greenock, and for a time worked the farm of his parents, and in 1911 moved to Lot 4, Con 19, in the same township, where he has since resided. In 1912 he married Ella Cruickshank of Greenock Twp. who survives him. Also surviving is one son, Harvey. There are two grandchildren, Olive and Orval.
Mr. Stewart also leaves three sisters and three brothers: (Bella) Mrs. Amos Webb of Greenock Twp.; (Mable) Mrs. Geo. Hood of Sarnia and (Ethel) Mrs. Albert Hicks of Guelph; Rev. Jos. Stewart of Cooksville; Emmerson Stewart of Toronto and Roy Stewart of Prince George, BC. Another brother George predeceased him in 1948.
All his lifetime Mr. Stewart was associated with Purdy's Church on the 14th of Greenock. He had a keen interest in the welfare of his native township and the home community, and for more than 20 years served on the board for SS #8 Greenock. Although he had never held any other municipal or political office, he followed closely the affairs of his township, the provincial and federal politics and his opinion was valued not only by his friends and neighbours, but as well by those in public office.
Since his late youth, Mr. Stewart had been on of the most capable and energetic members of the Paisley Agricultural Society and had besides the presidency, at one time or another, occupied almost every office within the organisation. It was rare indeed that an agricultural society meeting was held without Mr. Stewart among those present, and if it was a work party to prepare for the annual fall fair, to make improvements at the fair grounds or detail to make the annual canvas for donations to the prize list, Mr. Stewart was always available.
In association with his brothers, Mr. Stewart for many years conducted a dining service on the grounds of the Canadian National Exhibition which had built up a large following of regular patrons who returned year after year to eat at the Stewart tables where they were assured of good clean food, and a cordial welcome from "Billy" Stewart or his brothers.
The funeral will be held on Friday afternoon, with services at 2:30 o'clock, at the family residence on the 20th of Greenock Twp. Interment will be in Purdy's Cemetery.
