Kenneth NEWTON Obituary

NEWTON,
Kenneth Lauren (Kenny):
2.2.1955 - 24.4.2020
Ken passed away peacefully at Rosewood Rest Home on Friday, at 7.15am, after a long courageous and hard fought battle. Very precious and dearly loved father of Sonia, Chantelle, Tiffany and their partners. Special grandad Ken-Kenny to his 5 grandchildren. Ken was best friend and a special brother of Jim, and his extended whanau throughout New Zealand and Australia. He will be sadly missed by those who walked and rode with him through his life. Very heartfelt thanks to Emma, Linda, and the team from Rosewood for the exceptional respect, care and dedication they showed Dad on his journey.
"Rest in Peace, Ride Free"
Messages to the Newton family, c/- P.O. Box 26112, Christchurch 8148. Kenny will have a private burial, followed by a public service at a later date (to be confirmed).

We got to meet Kenny, when my Dad was in Rosewood too. We shared laughs, hot chips and the odd biggie with him. A beautiful soul, now at rest

You worked with my dad Martin for a while Kenny. I remember a big guy, very gentle....and you asked how my "little fella" was (my baby daughter). We still laugh about that today. Also when you worked in Queenstown with my dad, we came to stay and I'll never forget seeing your bottle of Pantene shampoo in the bathroom. You had great hair! Thankyou for being a great loyal mate to my dad for 30 years.
