I just saw this news. It saddens me very much and I send the most sincerest condolences to the family. Stew Leonard was a wonderful man, We loved going to the store when we were kids. He would be there and say hi the customers and was sweet to us kids. I also remember getting milk at the milk machine in Broad River for my mom. I was allowed to get some fruit punch if I walked down and got the milk. It's a wonderful memory. Now that I live in Newtown I frequent the Danbury store. We all love Stew Leonard's then and now. Love to you all.
