Richard Dale Newell, Sr. was born at home on St. Patrick's Day, March 17, 1940 
in Hubbard, Ohio to parents, Allan and Margaret Newell and passed from this life 
on July 12, 2014.

Richard was raised on a family dairy farm and as a small boy got up every 
morning before school to milk cows and make milk deliveries on his bicycle.

Richard was a veteran of the U.S. Air Force. He earned a B.S. Degree in Finance 
from Youngstown University and a Master's Degree in Business Administration from 
University of Illinois.

Dick's career included positions as General Manager and V.P. of Manufacturing at 
several converting operations for Graphic Packaging; President of Malnove, Inc 
in Clearfield, Utah and General Manager of Rock Tenn Corporation in Conway, 
Arkansas. He retired from Graphic Packaging and Rock Tenn Corporation.

Dick was an avid golfer and played courses all over the world. He also enjoyed 
duck hunting, fishing and snow skiing.

He was a wonderful husband, father, grandfather, brother and friend.

He is preceded in death by his parents, brothers Bob & Rollie, son Richard D. 
Newell, Jr., grandsons Richard D. Newell III and Ryan Charles Newell and former 
wife Sandra Morosky Newell.

He is survived by his loving wife, Sandy Walker Newell; daughter Julie Rothert 
and husband Trent; daughter Jessica Decelle; and special son Jeremy Thompson and 
wife Angie; grandchildren Robbie and Rodney Newell, Jake, Emma and Lily Rothert, 
and Christian Thompson; sisters Margaret Ripple and husband Tom, and Mary Jane 
Craig; brother, Raymond. Also, his "baby" Callie and other relatives and 
friends.

He is no longer suffering and if there are golf courses in heaven, that's where 
he will be.

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

Charitable donations may be made in his honor to the Multiple System Atrophy 
(MSA) Coalition: The MSA Coalition, 9935-D Rea Rd, #212, Charlotte, NC 28277
