In Loving Memory


Sorry for your loss from the George Newton family Mayer Arizona.

Dear Laurie

Quick note to say sorry I am for your loss and I know exactly what you are going through. We all miss you and many RBE staff have asked about you and are thinking of you. Remember I am willing to cry with you or just listen while you cry. Your friend!

To the entire Newton family,

I was so saddened to see that your husband and father died this past week. Even though I had not really lived back in the old neighborhood for all that long, he was always ready with a big smile and a wave each time I would drive by, or when I would pass by walking my dog.

I will keep you all in my prayers and hope that God will comfort you.

Best wishes,

Mark Campbell

Frank was a fine man and did a wonderful job at Ellwood City Forge.
