Larry Lance Newell, of Piedmont, OK, passed away at his home on March 9, 2020. He was born September 13, 1944 in Edmond, OK, to Don Melvin and Edna Katherine Elise 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 was preceded in death by his parents and younger brother, Gary.

He is survived by his wife, Kay Newell; son Lance Newell and wife Cristy; grandchildren Ian and Elise; brother Melvin Newell and wife Barbara; sister-in-law and brother-in-law Nelda and Jerry Woodard; nephew Robert Newell & family; nephew Travis Woodard & family; and niece Tarina Woodard.
