Stu was many things at different times of our lives. A co-worker, my boss, my landlord, my neighbor and in every case also my friend. Stu was a great cop with integrity and professionalism. Away from the “job” he was pretty much the same. He was honest and had no trouble telling you what he thought. To sum it up Stu, was authentic. I was lucky later in life after we had both retired, to call him friend. Stu will be missed… but not forgotten. Rick and Rosie Bechill
Mrs. Compton, Sydney & Family: I will always remember being over your house growing up and Mr. Compton would be around and he was quiet, but would always seem to make us laugh with a funny comment here and there. He was a hard working and all around great man. I know there are no words that can ease your pain, just know that I'm thinking and praying for you during this difficult time.
I am saddened by his passing. Yet, i am so thankful to have learned from him as a young deputy. His wisdom and candid response to any situation was always intertwined with humor that helped ease the tension or anxiety of those involved.
He was a great man and a great public servant.
He will always be remembered fondly
A really good guy and police officer. I always enjoyed working with Stew and getting together with him. I know we'll all miss him!
Stu will always be remembered as a first class gentleman and role model detective with a keen sense of humor! Sincere condolences to the family. 🙏🏻⛪🙏🏻
