On June 6, 1970, he married Kathlene Johnson at Evergreen Chapel in Branch and they have celebrated 49 years by each other’s side. Stuart worked as a Land Surveyor for over 30 years throughout the area, mostly for Wetherell Land Surveying in Baldwin and also for Duff Land Survey during the construction of the Consumer Power Pump Storage Facility in Ludington. Stuart loved to hunt and fish, mostly for the camaraderie with his buddies, and was a sports lover. As his health declined the past few years, he enjoyed following any sport that had a ball associated with it, especially if his grandchildren were involved. Lately he very much enjoyed watching a good western movie from the comfort of his home. Stuart was preceded in death by his parents, his beloved grandson Henry MacDougall, and his nephew Chris Zwiegle.
