Larry Lance Newell

He graduated Southeast High School and even went on to wrestle in college on a scholarship until he joined the Army. Larry joined the Army and served in Vietnam. He was in the Air Calvary before he made Green Beret. He very proudly served his country.

He enjoyed hunting, fishing, and golf. Larry was also a fan of both the OSU Cowboys and OKC Thunder. However, none of the above could hold a candle to the joy from which he received from the time he spent with his two grandchildren, Ian and Elise.

Larry retired from OG&E after 30 years where he worked in human resources and SAP Consultant
