Condolences & Memories (1 entries)

My condolences Doug & Julie, I remember Stew with many fond memories. Not only did we travel to work together for awhile in his little blue truck, he mentored me the four summers I worked at Tanco as a summer student. He wouldn't just correct me as I worked, he would take me aside to his office and explain the reason behind the proper way, often with a sketch or diagram. He showed me a lot of basics of practical maintenance. I still remember to this day to put the lid on a grease container right after taking out what I need. I think of Stew EVERY TIME with a smile and picture the keg of grease I had left the lid off of. :) He was more to me than a good friend! George - Posted by: George Williams (Friend ) on: Apr 19, 2015
