Parents: Guy and Edna Newton
After serving in the Army on the front lines during the Korean war, Dick married, started his family, and began a long career with DuPont that would take him to South Dakota, Missouri, Illinois, Hawaii, and finally to the one place he had always dreamed of – Colorado.
Dick is survived by his daughter Karen (Stephen), stepson Roger (Lori), son-in-law Randy, nine grandchildren, eight great grandchildren, and many nieces and nephews that he loved dearly.
Dick worked hard and played hard his whole life and made wonderful friends along the way. His sense of humor was his "trademark" and he shared it with everyone in his life, family, friends, or strangers.
He loved the mountains, he loved to laugh, he loved a good martini, and he loved driving cars, motorcycles, snowmobiles, and four wheelers (anything loud and fast). His garage was his playroom and he could often be found tinkering with one of his toys or sneaking the rare cigar.
Most of all, Dick loved his family and was always there to help or "guide" us (whether we wanted it or not!).
Dick is preceded in death by the love of his life, Clara, his daughters Annette (Nan) and Lynn, son Keith, parents Edna and Guy, and siblings Don and Shirley.
