Sheree Stewart

On Friday, May 22nd, 2020, Sheree (Wilt) Stewart, loving mother and nana, passed away at the age of 60 from Covid-19. Sheree was born on September 25th, 1959 in Niagara Falls, NY. She received a BS in Education from the University of Delaware in 1981. Over the years, she taught mostly as a supply teacher or educational assistant as her main focus and priority was always in being a mother first. In 1994, life brought her to Ottawa, Canada where she remained until the end. Anyone that knew Sheree at all knows her most proud life accomplishments were her daughters and grandchildren.

Sheree is preceded in death by her father, Lavern, her mother, Ruth, and her granddaughter, Abigail. She is survived by her four daughters Caeri (Patrick), Amelia (Corey), Julie (Mo) and Lisa (Chawn), her brothers Don and Calvin, her sister Jane, her niece's Michelle, Carly and Julie, her nephews Kyle, Matthew and David, her 6 grandchildren Xander, Colby, Cydnee, Amie, Lana and Maaz, and her former husband and father of her children, Doug. Sheree is also the biological mother to Nathan, whom God brought back into her life in the months before her passing. 

Due to Covid limitations, a service for Sheree will be held online on Monday, June 8th at 4:00pm pm. Please email rememberingsheree@gmail.com for a link to attend. A link will also be posted on Sheree’s Facebook wall on the day of. 

Donations in Sheree’s name can be made to the family of a frontline PSW from mom’s care home that also lost his life to Covid-19. He was a kind, caring man and his family has set up a fund to help pay for arrangements to honour him after his unexpected death. We know Sheree would absolutely want to support this fund gf.me/u/x6h27z 

Sheree was a wonderful woman in this life and I know she is continuing her amazingness in Heaven! I had the privilege of meeting Sheree during my mission while serving in Ottawa (since it was at the beginning, I don't have any pictures of the two of us. I didn't take many pictures at the beginning). I because close to her and her daughter and her family. I loved going to visit them. They made me feel at home and not miss my home back in Utah as much. She greeted me with a smile and when she would ask how I was doing, she really cared how I was doing. I was able to spend Halloween and Christmas Eve with her and her family. I loved every minute of those holidays and the other regular days of the week! When it was time for me to leave Ottawa, she was one of the first people I called and told. We kept in touch up to her death. 

Thanks Sheree for the wonderful example you have been in my life. You will be missed! I'm grateful to know that you are out of pain and that when we see each other again, you will be even more amazing than you already are!
