[Oe List ...] Bob Stewart

[LAURELCG at aol.com]

Thanks, Ann, for letting us know. Bob and his first Pat cared for our three 
 older children in the S.F. House while Fred and I, with our  youngest son 
went to the Academy in Chicago, fall of 1970. They both  inspired me. He was 
assigned to close First St. John's U.M.C., but turned it  into an active 
and growing congregation, so it wasn't closed after all.
 
Blessings,
Jann McGuire

Dear Colleagues, 
Bob Stewart is a United Methodist pastor, retired, who was  part of the 
Local Church experiment in San Francisco in the 60s and 70s, maybe  80s too. I 
married his eldest son, David, at the South House in 1972. I am  writing 
today to inform you that Bob has lymphoma and is on Hospice care. He  and his 
second wife are in a care facility. I would like to propose that those  of 
you who knew Bob and who would like to, send him a card recounting some  
memories at the institute or at Westside where he and Pat were in the summer  of 
68, or in San Francisco. Bob has been such a spirit giant. He has become  
involved a little in Native American spirituality. He has written his own  
prayers and has had several hours of prayer time in the early morning. Now he  
is dealing with his imminent death by telling all his friends that he is  
dying. I wish I could be with him but it is not possible at this time.  
However, he is with his daughter, Candi Delgardo, and his son, Tim Stewart.  Chris 
Stewart is not far away and there are many of the next two generations  
attending to him as well. Send a card to: Rev. Robert H. Stewart, c/o Candi  
and Dave Delgardo,  5438 Havenhurst Circle, Rocklin CA 95677. Thank you  for 
your care and concern. Journeying on in grace,  
Ann Shafer
