We regret to announce the sudden passing of Dr. David Stewart on August 22, 2010.
David was born on June 17, 1955 in Kamloops and graduated from Kamloops Secondary School in 1973. He attended UBC for his undergraduate and medical degrees, returning home to Kamloops with his wife Nancy to practice Urology in 1985.
David was a dedicated professional who gave his all for the patients in his care. Long hours left little time for leisure, but David savoured every minute of his free time, developing exceptional skills as a wildlife photographer. Cooking was another passion and many benefited from his culinary expertise. David was passionate about many topics, with a special interest in the history of Kamloops, and displayed an astonishing memory for detail. He cared deeply for his family and some of his favourite memories included a trip to Scotland with his mother Doreen and niece Giorsa in 2006, followed by a subsequent trip last year to Scotland with his wife and daughters. David loved to share his delights and interests with others, frequently phoning friends and family members with a joke or humorous anecdote. Doctors and nurses in the O.R. will also remember him for his humour and his professional intensity.
