Ethan Alexander “Etho” Newman was born on November 18th, 2005, to Sarah Newman and Richard Berrington at Oaklawn Hospital in Marshall, Michigan. The beautiful 10 pound, 3 ounces baby with the bluest of blue eyes, won the hearts of many from a very early age.
Ethan was an avid hunter and fisherman and could be often found doing both with family and friends. He loved any and everything that had to do with music or dancing. Besides his hobbies, Ethan had a love for life and his infectious smile and caring personality left anyone that he came in contact with in a better mood.
Ethan received his education through Concord Schools and immediately jumped into the work force. He was an extremely hard worker with a great work ethic. He was employed at Arby’s in Albion, MI and HiLex in Litchfield, MI prior to his death. His coworkers described him as a hard worker who always went above and beyond.
