Stu wore so many hats. He was a friend, employee, colleague to so many people. But I was the only one that got to call him my father-in-law. I will forever be grateful to share the same last name with someone that was so loved by his community. I will continue to be proud and carry our last name with honor.
He also earned a new title as Grandpapa Stuburger in the last year. It does tear my heart knowing our current children or future children will not grow up knowing him, but I will cherish the memories they have made!
Stu was always there to cheer Drew and I on. Whether it was about our marriage and foster journey, or just about the meal we were cooking him. He was our biggest fan.
Some of my favorite memories with Stu were when he would come up to Cincinnati and we would go brewery hopping. Cincinnati has some really cool spots. This last winter we were lucky enough to travel to Bermuda. While the food wasn't the most impressive, we did go to The Hog Penny, and had the most satisfying dinner. We played multiple rounds of golf and just enjoyed the beautiful island. I am so glad we were able to celebrate Stu and Drew's 60/30 birthday year!
I hope Drew and I can carry on his legacy in everything we do. I thank God he allowed me to be Stu's daughter-in-law. —Alexa Angus
