Rest In Peace, Stewart Silver 1967-2011, A beloved comedian, husband, son, and brother.
We will all see you eventually, Stew, we love you. Keep making them laugh upstairs.

Deciding that a career in medicine was not for him, Stewart began performing comedy
after completing his microbiology degree from McGill University.

Upon arriving in Toronto, Stewart’s sharp with and clean, intelligent brand of humour quickly earned
him numerous TV spots, eight appearances on Telemedia’s national radio program “Live From
Yuk Yuks” and an appearance at the Toronto Comedy Festival. He has since toured
extensively throughout Canada, opening for the likes of Norm MacDonald, Emo Phillips and
Ray Romano as well as appearing on the nationally syndicated show, "Comedy at Club 54" and
on the XM Satellite Radio network’s “Laugh Attack”.

Described as “biting yet not offensive…” as well as having “smart, hip material”, Stewart
turns today's palpable discomfort towards race and religion into clever,
hard-hitting comedy. All this while still tackling the far more serious issues of marriage,
children, mothers and aging with the same irreverent zeal.

Despite Stewart’s current success as a professional comedian and writer,
his mother still wishes he was a funny doctor.
