Timothy Terrell Stewart was born on November 16, 1998 in San Diego, California to Carmaline and Ronnie Stewart, Sr. Timothy was the seventh of eight children born to this union. Throughout his childhood he attended Truth Apostolic Church pastored by A. C. Williams and Mount Calvary Pentecostal Church in Lemon Grove, California under the leadership of Pastor TL Carter. At the time of his early demise he was attending both Younique Praise Apostolic Church, pastored by his older brother Overseer Ronnie Stewart, Jr. and Nu Life His Way Devotional Center pastored by Linda Morgan.
Timothy, (who was nicknamed Tim), received his education in the San Diego Unified School District. He attended Monterey Heights Elementary School, Knox Elementary, Palm Middle School, Lincoln High School and New Dawn High School. After finishing with school, Tim worked various jobs, including Westbrook Security. He was a go getter who would go above and beyond what was asked of him to make sure he completed his work with excellence.
Tim was a bright, spirited student who accomplished everything with an amazing sense of humor. Tim was known by his family to be very outspoken, funny, charming, and had a contagious smile. He was very protective over his family and would do anything for them. As a child, he loved being outdoors more than anything. Most of his outdoor adventures included skateboarding around town, or fishing alongside his family. When he was inside the house, he could be found binge watching cartoons with his dad.
Tim also enjoyed boxing and boxed at Emerson School of Martial Arts. He had a heart of gold and opened the doors of his home for any of his friends that needed a place to stay, even if it meant sneaking them in the house or wrapping them a plate of food to-go.
Many of his friends affectionately called him Lil Styckz. He was known for his very charismatic personality. He could brighten up the darkest days and make a joke out of anything. He had an insane love for music and would walk around town singing or rapping the lyrics to any song that came to his head. In case you didnt know, Tim also loved gospel music. One of his favorite gospel songs was I Smile by Kirk Franklin.
On Tuesday, March 17, 2020, Timothy Terrell Stewart was called home to be with the Lord. After a long fight through the night, Tim passed away at Scripps Mercy Hospital with his friends and family nearby. He was preceded in death by father Ronnie Stewart, Sr. and grandparents. Left to treasure his memory are mother, Carmaline Smith (Adrian Smith); brothers Frederick Caples and Ronnie Stewart (Rhonda Stewart); sisters Vyonne Pamplin (Chris Pamplin), Ronisha Stewart, Martha Stewart (Xavier Jones), Shamya Stewart, Nijiya Stewart; nephews Aiden Jones, Christopher CJ Pamplin, Jr; nieces Nariah Stewart, Camarii Pamplin, Zarley Jones, and Naylani Lipscomb; godparents Ruben Cabrera, Timothy Thorn, Autumn Ardrey, and Alicia Hickabottom, and a host of family and friends who loved him beyond measure. His smile will forever live on through the hearts of us all.

"I remember how much Tim would watch his brother Ronnie play the drums when they were kids who self taught himself. Oonce Ronnie got up Tim would jump on the drums. He had the same musical knack a love for music. I'm going to miss his goofiness and joking personality. Love you Tim. See you on the other side. Rest with your pops and grandparents, Lester, Sr. and Martha Cole. Cuzzn Pauline."
