Obituary of Stewart Bray

Please share a memory of Stewart to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
“Dust thou art, to dust returnest, was not spoken of the soul.”Stewart Bray, 89, died a sad death in St. Joseph’ s hospital on Monday, April 1. If love alone could have saved you, you might still be here. Stewart lovingly cared for his former wife, Virginia Bray, until her death in 2003. Pam McNew, who cherished and loved him, is his only child. He was one of two sons. His parents, Floyd and Marie, and brother, Bill Bray, no longer are living.Stewart has been living in Syracuse, New York for a number of years. More recently, he was a truly honored and beloved resident of Rosewood Heights Nursing Home where he resided for several years. He was an engineer at Ford Motor Company in Toledo, Ohio, where he was born, and then for over twelve years in Dearborn, Michigan. He also had worked for Willy-Overland and Auto Lite Spark Plug in his earlier career. He was a painter, piano player, carpenter, electrician and furniture builder in his spare time. He loved to walk, would give you the shirt off his back and was sweet, funny and lovable. He loved the Lord. His time on this earth will be cherished by those who knew him, as he tended to leave it a better place than it was.There will be no calling hours. He is being buried at Oakwood Cemetery in Syracuse, NY. If you care to give a gift in his memory, give it to someone who is in true need … surprise them, and say “Stewy sent me.” This world is in great need of strong love and unending good and kind acts. Never hesitate to show your heart in the midst of trouble. Dad, I will remain the keeper of fragile memories and of what is indissoluble of you. I love you so.
