Thomas Newman

Tom is survived by his daughter Skylin Newman; stepdaughter Rochelle Zimcosky; twin sister Ann Frantz; sister Kim Wire; brother Scott Freedman; nephews Brandon Lilley and Connor Freedman; nieces Sarah Hitt, Noel Frantz and Meggin Ryan; special friends T.J. Fetherolf, Jamie and Katy Stacey, Rev. Brandon Wilcox. Ron Morris, A.J. Boothe, Dawn Stockdale, Rev. Fr. Stephen Ondrey, Sheila Lutz, Rev. Fr. Kevin Lutz, Michaeleen Wesley and countless others who loved him very much.

Tom was an incredible artist. He also had a great sense of humor, often hidden behind what appeared to be a shy demeanor. Most Importantly, Tom had a tremendously loving and forgiving heart and a heart that was always seeking to serve others and draw closer to God his Father.

Tom spent many months at Grant, Riverside, Select Specialty and Mt. Carmel Hospitals as well as skilled nursing facilities. The family is grateful for all these caregivers, especially for Creekside Care Center and Heartland Hospice who cared for Tom in his final days.

Tom will be greatly missed by many people whose lives he touched and who are better for having known him.

Until we meet again, Tom, may God hold you in the hollow of His hand.
