My 2nd Mom on Manor Drive…..Mrs. Stewart, by far, made the BEST bologna salad, brownies and English Toffee at Christmas. Our family has shared so many wonderful memories with the Stewarts and none of them will ever be forgotten!! The last couple of years have been so tramatic for Mr. Stewart, Liz, Doug and Nancy…..but now she is at peace and she is looking down at all of us with a big smile. All she is wanting is for Keith, her Grandboys and her own children to be happy and move on with their wonderful lives. Save one of those yummy bologna sandwiches for me Mrs. Stewart….you were the best of the best when it came to making us girls what we wanted !! I love you Liz Stewart Morris and Family
