Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of John Thomas Jack Stewart Saturday November 6th 2021..
Death notice for the town of: Hanmer, Province: Ontario
This is Brenda Scott, Jack’s cousin who lives in North Bay Ontario. I just came across this death notice as I was searching for information on other family members that had lost track of over the last three years. I want to extend my sincere sympathies to the family. I did not know Jack well as he was several years older than me. the only real memory I have of him is when we attended the memorial service for his sister Beatrice Metcalf in Barrie Ontario. We went back to Jack’s sister Marg’s apartment to socialize before we all headed home. It was a lovely time and I took pictures of Jack and Carol while we were visiting. I am now trying to reconnect with the Stewart/Metcalf/Drake families.
I do hope that someone will reply to this message .
