Harvey Stewart Obituary, Death – Harvey Stewart, 80, of Long Branch, NJ, died peacefully January 29, 2023. Harvey, a Jersey Shore native, lived in Fair Haven for 45 years and Long Branch for 35. He earned a degree in forest engineering from Paul Smith’s College after graduating from Rumson Fair Haven High School in 1958. The renowned veteran served two tours in Vietnam after joining the Navy in 1962.

Harvey spent 30 years with Philip J. Bowers, a real estate firm that built various commercial complexes, including the Red Bank Airport, City Centre, and New Shrewsbury Racquet Club in Tinton Falls, N.J. He was a passionate Seabright Beach Club board member and Seabright Tennis Club Member of Distinction. Harvey enjoyed grass, clay, hard court, and paddle tennis year-round as a gifted athlete and team player. Harvey also loved offshore sport fishing and body surfing, and he made lifelong friends in all of them.

He joined the colorful Pocono Dopes, a wild lads weekend masquerading as a fishing club. Harvey gave his all at work, play, and with family and friends, always with a brilliant smile. The husband, father, grandfather, and friend who was always there for you, especially if you had four legs and a furry tail, enjoyed life. Harvey lived a committed life. Always a gentleman, he lived and worked with dignity.

His credo was, “if a job is worth doing, it is worth doing right.” He loved his Buicks and lived his ideals. His parents, Alva David Stewart Jr. and Ruth Wheelock Stewart, and sister, Lucy McDevitt, died before Harvey. His wife, Martha Chamberlain, of 33 years, his children Hilary Stewart (Los Angeles), Zach Stewart (Neptune, NJ), Jamie Stewart (Florida), stepson Alex Chernoff (Long Branch), and beloved grandchildren Chloe, Dylan, Brady, Matthew, Jake, Christopher, McKenzie, Emily, and Logan survive him.

On February 9, 2023, at 10 am, the Reverend Hank Hilton will offer a Mass of Christian Burial at the Church of the Nativity in Fair Haven, NJ. Instead of flowers, donate to Lunch Break, 121 DRS Parker Blvd, Red Bank, NJ 07701. Thompson Memorial Home, Red Bank, is handling arrangements.
