Carla Ruth Stewart, November 9, 1940 – January 2, 2021
CLAYTON, CA—Longtime Clayton resident, Carla Stewart, has moved on to a greater place. She and husband, Stephen Stewart, traveled and lived many places during Steve’s Navy career, but always loved their assignments in the Bay Area, and they took up permanent residence in Clayton in 1990. Carla and Steve walked the trails of Clayton daily and were featured in the Clayton Pioneer in 2009 when they took up scuba diving in their 60s.
Carla was a lover of Clayton’s trails, restaurants, events and of Crossroads Covenant Church, where she and Steve were founding members almost 50 years ago.
Carla was a fixture in the bleachers of Clayton Valley Little League and Clayton Valley High School during the 80s to cheer for her kids’, Steve and Ann, baseball, football and volleyball games. She recently graced those same venues for her grandsons’ baseball, soccer and volleyball games with local leagues and Berean Christian High School.
She will be remembered as an enthusiastic lover of her family, neighbors, and community.
Carla is survived by her husband, Steve, her children, Steve Stewart (of Livermore) and Ann Antonson (of Clayton), and her grandchildren, Sunde’, Zachary, Bradley, Connor and Kyle.
