Jonathan Dale Newell, 39 - Munday

(12/04/2012)
Jonathan Dale Newell, 39, of Munday WV, departed this life unexpectedly on December 3, 2012.

He was born on May 22, 1973, the son of Jack and Donna Newell.

Jon leaves behind a family he loved very much, his wife Leann and daughter Hannah.

Together they attended the Full Gospel Lighthouse Church, where he will be greatly missed. Jon was the Song Leader as well as active with the youth for many years. He was always there, no matter what the need, to lend a helping hand.

Next to God and family, Jon loved the outdoors. He could be found with his dogs coon hunting in the woods, fishing our local streams, or just roaming the hills he loved.

Jon was employed by HG Energy in Spencer, WV.

In addition to his wife and daughter, Jon leaves behind his mother, Donna Newell of Munday, and a brother Richard (Misty) Newell of Coolville, Ohio. Also two sisters, Carolyn (Jim) Lemon and Kathy (Vernon) Walker, both of Munday.

Jon will forever be remembered for his sense of humor and his special way of spinning a story. He was a very unique individual who was greatly loved by all of his family and extended family; aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by grandparents Carmel and Edith Newell, Oren and Maxine Parks, and father Jack Newell.

Graveside services will be held Thursday, December 6, 2012 at 10:00 am at the Big Bend Cemetery in Big Bend with Pastor David Carpenter officiating. The Stump Funeral Home in Grantsville is in charge of the services.
