In loving memory of Joseph Michael Newman who was born September 21, 1989, in New Orleans, LA. Joseph left this world far too soon on March 4, 2015. Joseph was a dreamer and an unconventionalist, a writer and an artist, a lover of books, music, karaoke, and video games, but most importantly, he was a beautiful soul. His compassion and kind heart touched the lives of all who were fortunate enough to know him. Joseph will be missed and loved for all time and space.

He leaves to cherish his memory, his parents, Arnold F. L. Newman, Sr. and Susan Duchmann Newman; his grandparents Lillian Newman Arnold (preceded in death Gilbert Newman, Jr.) and Delores Duchmann (preceded in death George Duchmann Sr.); his brother Arnold F. L. Newman, Jr. (Yvette Newman); his sisters Christine Newman Delaune (Jeff Delaune), Jessica Newman, Laura Newman Major (Sean Major), along with a large host of Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, Nieces, Nephews, and Friends.
