William (Bill) Stewart, 67, died Oct 25th, 2013 at home surrounded by loving family and friends.

Bill loved his racing and some of his favorite memories were his years working with PDM Racing.
In 2006 Bill married his love, Jenny, and especially enjoyed the years they got to travel the world together racing. In 2012 Bill was diagnosed with ALM Leukemia and was awarded 100% service-related disability as it was a direct result of his service in Vietnam and coming in contact with Agent Orange.
Bill was preceded in death by his parents John & Freda Stewart. He is survived by his wife. Jenny; his brother, Dave; his sister, Beth; his son, John (Heather); daughters, Dana (Matt) and Jeanine; his step-daughters, Nikki and Kelly; and his grandchildren, Emma, Julia and Grey.

Jenny, although we haven’t seen each in years, I have thought of you and Bill often. We have been throuh alot and we will always make it. You have alot of friends thinking of you. You are a wonderful lady, wife, mother and grandmother. My love and prayers go out to you and the family.
Paul and Susan Diatlovich says
Good friends are hard to find and very much harder to say good bye too. Bill will always be known for both. His pain is over as he slips these earthly bonds. May God accept one of his better children. We will miss you and you will always in our hearts and minds. Paul and Susan

Bill was more than just a friend, he was an amazing person. He was always so kind and considerate. We always welcomed seeing him at every opportunity. His passing will not only leave a void in our lives, but in the hearts of everyone who knew him. We are deeply saddened. Find comfort and strength where you can. We’re here for you Jenny……Love to you and miss you Bill

Jan and John Bartos says
Dear Jenny,
Jan and I are so sorry for your loss of a wonderful husband,friend and a good guy.We had the pleasure of meeting you and Bill and some of your friends at your home during the 2013 Indy 500 weekend. My nephew and Niece, John and Marcia, introduced us. It was not long before you both made us feel as though we had known you forever. Bill was such a pleasant guy and his wearing an ever constant smile, made it difficult to accept that he was fighting an uphill battle with his health. Jan and I had high hopes that he would win that battle. We will always treasure our photo of you and Bill, smiling as always, and the rest of us taken on your deck. The photo has been in our 2013 Indy 500 album and it serves to remind us of very special happening.
Stay strong by remembering the good times that you shared with Bill.
God Bless
Jan and John Bartos S.C.

Dear Jenny (and Bill’s family),
Paul and I loved Bill immediately, from the first time we met. It was a joy having you and Bill stay with us briefly on your last trip to Australia. We were so happy Jenny, to see you content after the sadness of Keith’s passing. This is another terrible loss for you but we will continue to be here for you and will pray that you and the family will know the comfort of the Lord at this difficult time. Bill’s kindly and genuine way was a gift to all who knew him. Our family, and all who loved him will feel the lack because he is no longer a part of our lives.
Blessings and much love from, Pam & Paul (and the Gill/Hutton family)
