Stewart and I became acquainted on the Message Forum, and were in touch at the Message Center as well. We lost touch in the midst of our 1st and 2nd Moderna jabs, March and April 2021. He was an avid reader and posted excellent book reviews on the Message Forum. I tried (but failed) to connect with Stewart in March 2022 on his 75th birthday. Stewart dearly loved his daughter Lauren, admired his former wife, valued his friendship with Bob Lawrence (ne' Fimoff), was a fan of Randy Rainbow, NOT a fan of the User Forums. He was grateful to be an American and served in the U.S. Army Reserve.
Finding Stewart's name in "In Memory" takes my breath away; I wish I had found him to be in touch during his last year of life.
The only thing I have learned in my search for news of Stewart since we lost touch is that he passed May 27, 2022 in Glendale Heights, IL.
I have compared Stewart's yearbook photo with the photo of Jeopardy! contestant Stewart Myrent and feel confident they are photos of one and the same person. Jeopardy! contestant Stewart Myrent was a player during season 24, in game #5361, which aired Monday, December 24, 2007.
Final Jeopardy! Round
Niles West, Class of 1964
He stood between Cora Peck, playing her 4th game of Jeopardy!, and Carolyn Weddell.

I recall that Stewart had a brother and sister-in-law, and a niece and a nephew, their children, who were both married.
Does anyone know if our classmate, Stewart Myrent, was a contestant on Jeopardy! ?

I remember Stewart said he planned his day around Jeopardy!...
