I'm quite late to finding out about this, but it's quite awful to learn. I was hoping he'd be able to complete his documentary of Gary Kildall, but that may never happen now.
He died on December 28th of last year from the flu.
Rest in peace, Stewart.

We’ve turned his website into a memorial.

That's a wonderful effort. Thanks for creating it! Wasn't aware of computerchronicles.tv

I learnt of his shows through the Old Timey Computer Show.
I've spent many hours with Computer Chronicles and Net Cafe episodes running on my second monitor from that stream.
RIP Stewart.

He will be missed. His positive impact in the world cannot be overstated.
