Thoughts with the family. Was a great man. The only person I would let touch my 60 Chevy. I will miss him greatly.

Stewart was the funniest person I've ever known. He will be missed by all.

I'm very sorry to hear of Stewart's passing. I was his customer for over 20 years. I always knew I could trust Stewart to be fair, competent and honest. I admired his sense of humor and work ethic. I always thought of him as an outstanding person, one I easily recommended to my family and friends. Rest in Peace. God Bless your family.

Hello Jeanie, Renae, Scottie and all the Salter family, what a shock. Yes we all will miss that uncontrollable hilarious fun caring since of humor. I remember him rollerskating at I think about 15 months. Is an outstanding person all through the many challenges he had to face in his life. Loved stopping by the shop to say hello when I come to town to visit my long time school companion Jeanie. Am oh so happy I got to enjoy a get together with Jeanie, Bill, Scottie, and yes Stewart was there. A very good memory I will hold dear. Was missing Renae, but another time. I'm praying much for you all, I to am hoping you Jeanie and all the family can hold all those wonderful times and talents in your memory bank to lift you up. He is in a wonderful peaceful place. I praise God for him . I Do so love you all. Dottie

I looked forward to seeing him on Tuesdays. Always quick witted with his un-mistakable humor. He will be missed.

My thoughts and prayers for Stewart, his family and the gang at the shop. Stewart always treated me as more than a customer and always bailed me out of whatever mess I got myself into with my projects. He always did so with a smile and a laugh and his passion for the work and the people that brought that work in, was special and rare. a great shop, but it was the friendly and fun environment that kept me coming back.

Our deepest condolences to Stewart's family and friends. It is a great loss and he will be missed. He loved what he did and was a great guy. Keep those memories going of him.

Jean, Renea, Scott and all: We are so very sorry for the loss of your son, brother, father and grandpa. We will never forget Stewart's warm smile and infectious laugh. He truly will be missed at extended family gatherings. We wish we had the words to say to lessen the shock and the grief for you...but we don't. Just know that you are in our thoughts and that your hurt weighs on heavily on our hearts as well. Love to you all, Dave and Joanie Neyens

Lisa, Dustin, Noah, Kinzie and all of the Salter family, we are so sorry for your loss. This is a difficult time, but hold on to the memories and believe that you have an angle watching over you. Sending lots of hugs and prayers to all of you. love Tanya & Chris

My thoughts and prayers goes out to the Salter family. I am so very sorry for your loss. Stewart will be missed.

Deb and I offer our sincere condolences to the Salter family. Stewart and I grew up together back in the ‘60s in the old neighborhood. Man, there were a lot kids in the neighborhood back then, and everyone’s mom was your mom too. Stewart was a few years older than me but we all hung around together at one time or another back then. We all got into trouble and mischief together regardless of our various ages. Later I installed some of the electrical at Stewart’s shop when it was being built. I used to stop there often for work on my car or just to say hello and chat a while. Stewart always took time to stop what he was doing and visit when I stopped by. I enjoyed those times greatly as Stewart was one of those guys that could always make you smile and laugh. Even when I visited him in the hospital he always had something positive to say along with something funny. He was one of those guys who was able to see things from a different perspective than most people. He was often quite insightful and usually made ‘too much’ sense. I’m going to miss him a lot.

I would like to extend my sympathy the Salter family, and I hope that these loving words will comfort and support you through this time of sorrow. Jehovah God is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. And he will wipe away the tears from all faces. Psalms 34:18; Isaiah 25:8 NWT Bible. Peace be with you.

Growing up, Steward and all the kids on 43rd were my friends and classmates. As a young boy, I envied Steward's cars in his toy collection. On hot summer days like this, we'd play outside for hours. We put a baseball through the window of the Greenwoods' house. Long ago our paths went different ways. But this sad news has reminded me what funny, busy kids we all were, Steward especially. My sincere sympathies to Jean (who I can only think of as "Mrs. Salter" really), Renae, and all the family.

I was very sorry to here about Stewart, He had a big heart for helping lots of guys with either motors or giving them a chance to drive one of his cars. We didn't always get along but I respected his opinion . I wish I could attend his funeral , but I will be racing sat at the Jones County Fair & West Liberty. I'm sure Stewart would understand. Our thoughts are with his family.

I've known Stewart since he worked at Robinson wholesale, mr. gs, and out of his garage in Hiawatha. He was always a good honest man he will be missed.????

Dustin, Lisa, Noah and Kinzie Just wanted to let you know I am so sorry for your loss! My prayer is that your tears are tempered with laughter and great memories. Love Theresa

Stewart was a great guy with a big heart whom we considered to be a member of our extended family. He will be missed! Our deepest condolences to Jean, Renea, Scott, and all of Stewart's kids. We love you guys! - Deb and Bob
