Robert Allen "Bob" Newell Jr.

I once loved this man- many years ago when we were in the Marine Corps Band together. I am heartbroken to see that he has passed away so young. I always think of him when I hear a STYX song as that was our favorite band. I have never forgotten Bob even though we separated a long time ago. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and close friends. He will be missed. We'll meet again on the other side.....

Every time...I mean EVERY time I hear Glenn Miller I think off my good friend Bob Newell!!! And I missed him even when he was alive

Bob"Boy Bobby" as we called him, to distinguish him from our Auntie Bobbi (Uncle Robert's wife and Boy Bobby's step-mom)was always one of my sister's and my favorite cousins, even though we only met him a hand-full of times. I remember him as this big, gruff-looking man who turned out to be a teddy bear and just a super nice guy.

The Newells have lost a lot of wonderful people over the past several years, but the outpouring of love and fond memories after each passing is a tribute to...

Eternal rest grant unto them , O Lord,
and let perpetual light shine upon them .
May the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Grace Vega Kenny

It is with the greatest sadness that I contribute to this Guest book after having heard that Bob had recently passed.

Bob and I have been friends for almost fifty years and I can remember like yesterday when he and the Newell family moved across the street from us. My greeting to the neighborhood was a snowball fight with the Newell brothers.

Bob and I eventually forged a strong friendship and played many football, softball and basketball games either with or against...

My heart goes out to entire Newell family.May they find comfort in the arms of family and friends.Linda Niemczyk

Please accept my sincerest condolences for your loss. I hope that words such those found at John 6:40 bring you comfort at this difficult time. CR
