He was born in Toronto, Ontario to Donald and Donna Allen on April 25th,1959. He grew up in Scarborough, Ontario with his 3 siblings, attended Dorset Park Public School and Wexford Collegiate School for the Arts before leaving to pursue a career in the beverage industry.

Stewart had a vibrant career at Pepsi, and then later in the Global Bottled Water Industry. Stewart held almost every position imaginable from Truck Driver's Assistant all the way up to CEO. Stewart also served the industry via association advocacy as well as volunteer board work.

Stewart was passionate about Education and Philanthropy, and worked closely with Dalhousie University and Wexford Collegiate to help send deserving students through University. In addition to this he was also passionate about the Halifax medical community and gave generously to the QEII hospital.

Above and beyond his extraordinary career and philanthropic endeavours, Stew's true adoration was with his family. He enjoyed nothing more than weekends at the cottage, family vacations, and time with his daughters. He is survived by his daughters: Jacki Allen (Jeff Sousa), Jessi Allen (George Williams), Siblings: Steven Allen (Darlene Campbell), Barbara Dionne (Chris Dionne), Brad Allen (Jane Allen), and many nieces and nephews, who will all miss him greatly.
