MACKENZIE, Stewart Roger Stewart passed away peacefully on October 3, 2017. He was born on August 3, 1959. A private family interment will take place at a later date. He was loved and will be missed. Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to Gray’s Funeral Chapel, (306) 922-4729. I’m Free Don’t grieve for me, from pain I’m free. I am following the path God has laid you see. I took his hand when I heard his call. I turned around and left it all. I could not stay another day, to laugh, to love, to work or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way, I found the peace on a sunny day. If my parting has left a void, then fill it with remembered joys. A family shard, a laugh, a kiss, Oh yes, these things I too will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow, I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life’s been full; I’ve savored much, good family, good times, a loved one’s touch. Perhaps my time seemed all too brief, don’t lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your hearts and peace be to thee. God wanted me now, from pain I’m free.
