A love story: KUNR's Duncan Stewart and his 'soulmate' mark 20 years

Just before New Years, KUNR broadcaster Duncan Stewart and his wife Cheryl celebrated 20 years of marriage and renewed their vows at a large gathering with friends at Sierra Tap House in downtown Reno. 

Prior to their marriage December 30, 1995, Duncan had been married five times and Cheryl three. With eight marriages between them that hadn't worked out as planned, the inseparable pair finally found their "soulmates" and a love that has endured.  

Duncan shared their story with David Stipech on KUNR's Beyond the Headlines (air date 1-15-16).

The story of the love -- and hope -- of Duncan and Cheryl Leith (Duncan goes by his longtime air name of Stewart) was also featured recently on KTVN Channel 2's Someone 2 Know Segment. 

More about Duncan Stewart's background and work at KUNR.

David Stipech is a former general manager at KUNR Public Radio.
