    Stuart (Stu) graduated from the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology in 1982 and joined GEC Turbine Generators, Rugby as a graduate apprentice. Engaged within the Controls, Systems and Applications Group, Stuart developed a flair for numerical analysis and went on to define the company standard for HP cylinder overheating protection in addition to helping implement the first digital governing systems. As Stu’s career matured, he became the group’s lead for new project tender activities where he augmented his flair and expertise to encompass the entire range of turbine shaft-line auxiliary systems. Stu went on to lead the Systems Engineering group of engineers until the merger with GE when he was appointed Controlled Title Holder with responsibility for Lubricating Oil and Hydraulics Systems. Throughout his career, Stu was always courteous and professional and always able to find the time to help others. Outside of work Stu was a keen hobbyist with interests in DIY, cars, motor racing, photography, dog walking, music and computers and a love of all gadgetry from his beloved Karcher to his motor operated compound mitre cutter. Stuart is survived by his wife Jayne, Sarah and Darren and brother Mike. By Alan Lang

    On 30th July we had to share the sad news with Stu's friends and colleagues at GE. On this beautiful morning I have to some very sad news to share. Our friend and colleague Stuart Rowe passed away this morning. Stuart was our Principal Engineer in steam turbine accessories. He was a really talented engineer whose work benefited power stations throughout the world. He was generous with his time and educated many of us in the mysteries of turbine systems. Most of all, I remember that Stu was great fun to work with and always there when you needed him. Stu leaves a big gap in our professional and personal lives. Our thoughts are with his wife Jayne and his family. We will share details of funeral arrangements, but sadly that will be restricted due to COVID measures. If we cannot attend, we will find another way to remember Stu. Regards, Dave. David Bell
