Lisa Annina Newton, a beloved wife, mother, friend, and faithful servant of the Lord went to her heavenly home on March 16, 2023, surrounded by her family. Lisa was a great example of “well done good and faithful servant”. There was not a day that went by where she didn’t touch a life. If you knew Lisa you know she had an incredible way of seeing people as Jesus does. She ministered to so many people and left a mark on everyone who met her. Her devotion to God, her family, and her friends was unwavering. She walked the walk, kept the faith, and was a true servant of the kingdom of God. Lisa walked in joy and lived her life to bring light to those around her. She loved unconditionally and had an intentional kind of sweet love that cannot be replaced. After having grandchildren, she made it her mission to pour into them. She loved and soaked up every little detail of her grandbabies and was very intentional to get on their level to teach them and guide them just as Christ would. She loved them something fierce, as she did to everyone around her. What an incredible honor it has been to love her and celebrate her in her time here on earth. This is not goodbye, it’s we can’t wait to see you again ❤️
Lisa is survived by her adoring husband, Autley Benjamin Newton; handsome sons, Garrett Newton and wife Brittany, Britton Newton, and Daniel Newton; beautiful grandsons, Bowie and Benji Newton; beloved sister, Lori Robertson; and her precious parents, Vincent Anthony Annina and Elaine Bourgeois Annina.
She is preceded in death by her grandparents, Samuel and Ann Annina, and Lawrence and Dorothy Bourgeois; as well as her mother-in-law, Miriam Newton.
