Vincent Michael Newell
It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Vincent Michael Newell, age 72, on May 3, 2026.
A longtime resident of Port Richmond, Vincent spent the majority of his life in the neighborhood he called home. He was the beloved husband of Frances Newell, the devoted father of Vincent Newell, and a dear stepfather to Ethan Haak and Trevor Stepnowski. He is survived by his brothers, Kevin and Ray Newell. He was predeceased by his parents, Mary and Vincent, his brother Timmy, and his sister Joann.
Vincent was deeply loved by his many grandchildren, who brought him great joy. He found happiness in life’s simple pleasures, including hiking, throwing a frisbee, long rides, walks on the beach, and thrifting. He especially cherished the time spent at home with his family. One of the greatest joys of his life was his commitment to his Narcotics Anonymous (NA) family; the guiding principle “Just for today” remained close to his heart throughout his journey. Vincent will be remembered for his profound love for his family and the lasting impact he had on all who knew him.
His memory will live on in the hearts of those who loved him.
Words can never express the gratitude I have for what you brought to my life. You brought out a side of my mom I never got to see growing up. You accepted all of us as your own and our kids were truly your grand babies as well. I’ll miss you Vince we love you. I hope there’s a burnt hot dog and some Johnny Hots waiting for you.
