May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. I was a Caregiver to Stovy for a couple of years and he gave me a whole new perspective about opera and I will be forever great full for the experience. RIP STOVY

I had the great pleasure of meeting Stovy many times when he was researching the British side of the Brown family for his book.I was able to give him some of the data he required.
What a really charming friendly happy person,with a lovely sense of humour.We had two lunches together during which he told me all about the Brown family in the USA and his plans for the family gatherings he was planning.I in turn gave him much information about the British side of the Stewart-Brown family.
I am very sad to hearing of his death and wish all his relatives all happiness.

He will be sorely missed. He was the driver behind so many Brown family gatherings and had so much family knowledge. My condolences to all the family.

Stovy will be missed. I thank him and Ann for all their work on our family genealogy that helped me complete our documented history back to Charlemagne. I am glad he is at peace.
