His son, Adam, confirmed his passing in a statement, which read, “It is with great sadness that I share with you today the passing of my father, Gordon “Butch” Stewart. This news seems almost unbelievable, since he was as involved and forward-thinking as ever. He chose to keep a very recent health diagnosis private and we respected that wish.
