It was a privilege to have Mr. Newman as a teacher at AHS for US History and Government. He made the classes so interesting and fun! RIP Mr. Newman - you impacted so many lives.

Our Deepest Sympathy to Mrs. Newman, Family, Friends and Colleagues. Steve was an incredibly wonderful person; one who gave so much of himself to his students,athletes & as a consummate mentor to so many at AHS & the Community. I enjoyed so many interactions with him during our time at AHS...as did Chad while he was a member of the track team. Steve was an inspiration to everyone...a one in a million guy! Steve will always be so fondly remembered. We are very saddened on his passing& so...

Mrs. Newman, Adam, and family - my love and warm wishes. Coach Newman was a great mentor and guide to me during high school, and I´ve thought of him many times over the years. I always smile when I remember his timeless words of wisdom: "It´s a definite maybe." Our best to you and all your loved ones.

Once a coach at Bishop Feehan, I had many encounters with Steve. He was a true gentleman and always appreciated fair play and humility.

Adam and rest of Newman family sorry of Dads passing. Loved the conversations we had in class. May God bless you all , in prayers

Steve was a dear friend in junior high, at Classical, and in the Boy Scouts. He was instrumental in my decision to attend Classical. On the track team, he was our best high jumper and a member of a great mile relay team. I was not surprised when he went into professional coaching, or at his great success in that field. It was a tragedy that in his final years he suffered from Alzheimer´s; he deserved much better. My sincerest condolences to Karen and Steve's children.

Dear Karen and family, Danny and I were so sorry to hear of Steve's passing. Please know we are sending love and prayers to you and your family. Steve will surely be missed by all those lives he touched. Rest peacefully Steve. Love, Danny and Liz Flynn
