Remembering Brad Stewart

Berkeley parks and open spaces have lost a valued friend and benefactor with the May 21 sudden passing of Brad Stewart, secretary of the Berkeley Partners for Parks Board and a co-organizer and active leader in West Berkeley’s Schoolhouse Creek Common and Friends of West Street Park. Whether digging weeds and promoting pollinators on the Santa Fe Right of Way, or writing clear and detailed notes and organizing Zoom meetings, Brad was unfailingly cheerful, warm, patient, and generous. He is much mourned and will be greatly missed.
