Mr.Steward there are no words to describe the loss of your wife, my mentor and friend. In 1976, it was Mrs. Steward, that taught me to exceed "The Standard". So many of us were blessed to work with her on 2A.
She, paid a price during her trainning as a C.T.N. I stand proudly on her shoulders. I pray that God will comfort you during this time.
