Richard M. Stewart Jr., 68 of Batavia, NY passed away Tuesday, November 7, 2023 surrounded by his loving family.
Richard was born August 26, 1955, in Batavia, New York, the only son of Richard and Rosalina (Camacho) Stewart.
Richard began his auto technician career in Batavia and worked at many locations throughout his life. Richards biggest passion was working with automobiles and rebuilding muscle cars. The pursuit of his other passion, flying single engine planes, had begun, but was short lived due to health issues that arose. In addition, learning about and collecting firearms as well as always making time for friends and hanging out with his buddies were some of his favorite pastimes.
Richard is survived by his wife, Patricia Mortellaro-Stewart of Batavia. His mother, Rosalina Stewart of Batavia. Children, Richard (Katie) Stewart III of Batavia, New York and Trisha (Russell) Turner of Virginia. Grandchildren, Casper and Jessa Stewart of Batavia, Hayden, Sydney, Chloe, Jackson, Sebastian, and Lexington Turner of Woodbridge, Virginia.
