Hunter Robert Newton Obituary, Cause of Death – Manheim Family and Friends Mourn Beloved 32-Year-Old
Hunter Robert Newton, 32, of Manheim, passed away on Tuesday, September 15, 2020, leaving his family, friends, and loved ones mourning the loss of a young man remembered for his kindness, sensitivity, infectious smile, and ability to bring laughter to those around him.
Hunter was born on March 25, 1988, in Akron, Ohio, to Robert A. Newton of Erie and Thea S. Newton-Schock of Manheim. His family remembers him as someone who was taken from life far too young but whose personality and caring nature left a lasting impression on everyone who knew him.
Described as kind, sensitive, and caring, Hunter was full of life and known for his infectious smile. He was always ready to joke and make others laugh, and he found fulfillment in helping the people around him.
Hunter developed a passion for BMX racing when he was young and became a top BMX bike racer. As an adult, his interests expanded to motorcycles of all types and spending time outdoors.
Family was especially important to Hunter. He cherished the time he spent with his brother, Taylor N. Newton of Edinboro, as well as his beloved boxer, Lilly. Those closest to him also remember his love of music and his attention to his appearance, noting that he could often be found well dressed and listening to music at any moment of the day.
Hunter is survived by his parents and brother, along with his “second mom,” Aunt Cheryl Newton; stepfather Dave Schock; and his father’s fiancé, Liz Wilson. He is also survived by his paternal grandmother, Margaret Forstchen; several aunts and uncles; beloved cousins Travis and Dylan Kuehn; and countless friends who will deeply miss his presence.
His passing has left a profound void among those who knew and loved him. Family and friends are remembering the laughter, kindness, friendships, and shared experiences that made Hunter such a meaningful part of their lives.
Relatives and friends were invited to visit with Hunter’s family at 6 p.m. on Monday, September 21, 2020, at Buch Funeral Home, 21 Market Square, Manheim, Pennsylvania. A service followed at 7 p.m., with private interment planned for a later date.
Those wishing to honor Hunter’s memory were invited to make contributions to Buch Funeral Home to help defray funeral expenses. Social distancing and masks were required during the services.
Hunter Robert Newton will be profoundly missed by his family, friends, and everyone fortunate enough to have known him. His infectious smile, humor, caring nature, love of motorcycles and the outdoors, and the memories he created will remain with those who loved him.
May Hunter Robert Newton rest in peace, and may his family and friends find comfort in the memories of the life he shared with them.
