Allan Stewart Obituary

Allan Wayne Stewart, known affectionately as "Stew," passed away on August 26, 2024, at the age of 46 in Shamokin, Pennsylvania. Born on June 6, 1978, in Lubbock, Allan was a spirited and joyful presence in the lives of those who knew him.

Allan graduated from Upper Darby High School and soon found his passion in landscaping. He was not only a skilled landscaper but took pride in his work, often regarded by many as a "pretty damn good one." His work allowed him to touch many lives, beautifying spaces and creating environments that brought joy to others.

Known for his ability to lighten any mood, Allan lived life to the fullest. His hobbies included having fun with friends and family, a testament to his loving and fun-loving nature. Allan was a great brother, uncle, and friend, always bringing laughter and joy to those around him.

Allan is survived by his brother, Jim Stewart, and sister, Jamie (Stewart) Egleston. He was preceded in death by his mother, Theresa Lynn Stewart, father, Jimmy Glenn Stewart, and brother, Charlie Stewart.

Details of the memorial services will be determined and announced at a later date. Allan's legacy of joy and kindness will be remembered by all who knew him.

I am heartbroken to hear of Allan's passing. He was friends with my oldest son, Dan and spent many fun times at my house on Berry Avenue. Allan was very respectful, friendly, kind and honest. Not a mean bone in his body. I am sorry that his time here on earth is over but his memories will carry on. Sending prayers and love to his family at this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Michele Breslin

I remember the day Allan & I became friends. He came walking down Berry Ave in Drexel Hill when he moved around the corner. From that day on Allan was around for the next 5 years until we all started moving further away as we got older.

Allan & I bought 2 cars together before either of had a license or were legally allowed to drive. Neither of those cars ever made it to being street legally-or actually running reliably again.

We used to go jump on this trampoline behind the Orth´s house at night. When they turned on the light-we all ran away. We also would go there during the day and jump-so they def knew it was us.

One night around Christmas, Allan, TJ, Fran, and I came up with the idea to go Christmas caroling as a joke. After the first house gave us money, we proceeded to continue until we all made $20 each. That was fun-and that was Allan!

I remember we did a few landscaping jobs while we were in high school and he was like an Ox-busting through that job-getting it done. I don´t think I ever worked as hard as Al could. He just got it done.

Miss ya brother!

A really good guy

Actually had him trim some trees for me at one point.

He hung out with my son Dan and created some affectionate nicknames for the other kids.

he was my uncle, and when i was younger, anytime he came over he would bring his boxing gloves and we would "fight" and laugh our heads off.
