Newton was married to his beloved wife Celine for 45 years before she was called home to the Lord. Newton was a loving father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. He loved his family dearly and was blessed to have loved them for many years. Newton loved camping with his family and was a member of Sam’s Camping Club and loved to travel. He worked for Chevron until his retirement after thirty eight years of service.  Newton enjoyed gathering with his retired friends and was proud to be a part of the Regional Military RoundTable Discussion. Newton proudly served our country in World War II. Newton is now reunited with his wife Celine and rests in the arms of his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

The family would like to thank Dr. Dupont, Kristen Fortier and Haydel Memorial Hospice. They would also like to thank the wonderful staff at Sugar Mill Suites (oh ho) for all their love and support at our time of need.
