John W. Newcomb

Just made aware of this news. Completely shocked and saddened. I had not seen John in a few years, and was considering texting him to say hello.

A total gentleman, he was always a great guy to hang around and chat with. Loved our convos at Oh Bryons. And a true family man in every sense of the word.

My deepest condolences to Angie, Kyle & Trevor. I hope you have been able to find comfort in the wonderful memories.

RIP John. A life too short, but certainly well lived.

Newc sure loved his boys and totally enjoyed their ballgames- I always enjoyed seeing him at our games and always gave us wonderful support..Coach Weiss

Angie and family,

My sincere condolences. Keeping you and your family in my prayers at this difficult time.

Please accept my heartfelt condolences. John was a great man, mentor, and friend. His HHS OIG family will miss his dearly.

John was always the first to call to see what he could do to help The Club. We have lost a good man. May your hearts be filled with wonderful memories of times together as you celebrate a life well lived. Love you all.

One of the best people I ever meet. I am a better person for knowing him and so is everyone else who every had the pleasure of meeting him.

We were teammates. Then we were friends. We became brothers. Miss you.

Terrific baseball parent- so supportive!
Great caring Dad

I met John in South Detectives and we eventually worked together in Major Crimes. John was always willing to help and was truly a gentleman. Over the past years, we would occasionally see each other downtown and it was just like we saw each other the day before.
John was always proud of his family.

My condolences to the family for their unexpected loss.

Angie, Kyle and Trevor: you are all in my prayers during this incredibly sad and difficult time. I am just in total disbelief. Angie - if you need anything please let me know.

I am so sorry for your loss. I supervised John and worked along side him when I was at HHS. He always found a way to make us laugh, keep us on our toes and ask tough questions when other were to afraid to do so. He was a big mentor to a lot of the new staff and respected by everyone. He will be truly missed by his family, friends and colleagues around the country.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

I’m in complete shock at John’s passing. Back in grade school he was just another big brother to me. He always made me feel loved when I saw him. The world has lost a beautiful person. I’m so sorry for your loss Angie.
