Wesley “Harrell” Stewart April 23, 1950 – September 30, 2026
Wesley “Harrell” Stewart, 76, of Clanton, Alabama, passed away on September 30, 2026, at UAB Hospital.
Harrell was born on April 23, 1950, in Magee, Mississippi, to the late Grady and Vertress Stewart. He spent 40 years working for International Paper in Prattville, Alabama where he served as a maintenance planner and a maintenance electrician. Harrell was a hardworking man who took great pride in his work and was known for his ability to fix, build, and figure out just about anything.
He was a faithful member of Bell Lane Baptist Church in Clanton, Alabama, where he served as a Sunday School teacher. His faith was an important part of his life, and he cherished the relationships he built through his church and community.
Harrell enjoyed fishing, camping, and reading, but perhaps what he enjoyed most was being a true “tinkerer.” He loved working with his hands, taking things apart, figuring out how they worked, and finding a way to make them better. His curiosity, resourcefulness, and willingness to help others will be remembered by all who knew him.
