Daniel Patrick Stewart

October 15, 1946 - February 4, 2021

Daniel Patrick Stewart died peacefully on February 4, 2021 at his home in Cedar Hill, Missouri at the age of 74. Dan was a gifted carpenter and poet. He showed his tremendous love for his family and friends by sharing these gifts with them throughout his life. He was proud to be a loving husband, father, stepfather, grandpa, brother, and uncle. Dan had a wonderful sense of humor and always had a twinkle in his eye as he made loved ones laugh with jokes, puns, and humorous tales of his days in the Navy. As a Navy veteran who served two tours aboard the U.S.S. Hornet during Vietnam, his initiation as a Shellback was both a point of pride for him and a favorite source of amusing stories. He is survived by his wife Margaret “Peggy” (Martens) Stewart, daughter Shelly (Stewart) Collins, son-in-law Michael Collins, granddaughter Brianna Collins, and many siblings, nieces, and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents Glenn Stewart and Wanda (Snyder) Gobat, Stepfather Charles Gobat and Stepmother Sheila (Bennett) Stewart.
