Not sure what to say?

Newt was one of my dad’s best friends! They were golfing buddies and shared a common Friesian heritage! The Fox Lake golf course will not be hearing the Friese talk now, but heaven’s courses will have both Angelic and Friesian voices. Rest in peace dear Newt and say Hi to Al from his daughter ❤

Newton was a joy to have in our Coffee Shop.He was our oldest customer.He came in with his wife Esther and made us all laugh.He even has a specialty drink named after him.We would put on the oldtime music and sing songs together.He always offered advice to our young teenagers.Our hearts ache for his loved ones left behind.May God bring you all peace, and joy knowing he is now resting in the arms of the Lord. Sending prayers, Tina & staff @T's Cup & Cream.

Sincerely,
