Ernest Newman Obituary

E. Wayne Newman
1929-2020
E. Wayne Newman was born in South Gate, CA in October 1929. During his youth, he enjoyed time at the beach, tinkering with cars and time with his beloved brother and sister. In July 1955, he married Marjorie Woolley and their marriage was blessed with 5 children. After Marjorie's passing in March 1987, Wayne married Nancy Jo Rushton in December 1998. He was a hardworking and dedicated husband and Father. He served 13+ years as a Second Councilor in a Bishopric, Executive Secretary, Elders Quorum Presidency, Youth Leadership Callings, and was honored to serve in the temple as a faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
He worked as Maintenance Worker for the LDS Church for 40 years, Rheems Manufacturing for 30+ years, serving for 10 years as the President of his local Steelworker Union. In his adult life, he loved to travel and sacrificed to make it possible to take his family on 5 road trips across the nation, visiting historical and Church history that inspired him. He grew up in poverty and in his adult life, took pride in providing for his family and maintaining an orderly and beautiful home.
He is survived by his wife Nancy Newman, children Becky, Sandra, Leslie Bolton (Chris), David (Sara), Kenneth, 12 Grandchildren, 7 great grandchildren, brother Del Newman (Dawn) and sister Darlene Stanworth.

Wayne always treated me like I was a son. I'm so thankful that I was able to Visit with Wayne & Nancy just last week. I'm glad that I listened to the Holy Ghost telling me that I needed to stop that day. He was excited that I shared my pictures that I had taken on my trip to Eastern Idaho and Jackson hole, Wyoming in November. They were always happy to see me. Clay A. Barry

It is with sadness that Roland and I are not able to attend Wayne's service and to pay honor to him and the life he led. There is a line from a poem that I love...."to see the world steadily and whole". Wayne is an example of that rare talent. It was a special eperience for Roland and I to travel to Mesa, AZ...July, 1955 and witness and then to follow the example of being sealed for all eternity. It has also been special to know Nancy and partake of her vivasious spirit, hear the lilt in her voice, and the joy of life in her laugh, and watch her wrap her arms around the Newman family with love. We love you all...our prayers are with you. Roland & Carol
