Liliane M. Stewart, the Montreal tobacco heiress who endowed and supported several Montreal museums, including the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, the Château Ramezay the Stewart Museum on Île Sainte-Hélène, and as well as a number of hospitals died early Saturday, May 3. She was 85. She was an intensely private, sometimes difficult woman, who carried on and expanded her husband’s philanthropic works. Mrs. Stewart refused to talk about herself or answer personal questions. Once, when asked to furnish biographical material to a journalist she declined. “Me, I am me,” she said. “That’s all you need to know. I am a very private person.”
