Clint Allen Newton, born February 5, 1979, in Casper, Wyoming, moved to Spring Creek, Nevada, to spend time with his family and pursue his goals. A loving son, brother, uncle, father and friend, taken from us too soon in a tragic automobile accident on April 25, 2024, at 7:28 p.m., is survived by his parents (Marla and Garald Cox of Spring Creek, NV) brothers (Michael Newton of Kyle, TX, and Jeremy Brown of Casper, WY), sister (Amanda Hoard of Spring Creek, NV), and his son and daughter (Tyler Fraser and Taylyn Newton, of Casper, WY), his grandparents (Edward and Rita) and (Patricia and Dick), aunts and uncles, nieces and nephews, and numerous cousins, as well as a woman he loved (Jenna Bailey). Clint would also want to pay homage to David, Doug, Aunt Kathy and Uncle Hal, and his Uncle Eddie for the role they had in his life and the lessons learned. His Grandma Uhl, who was there to hold him at birth, Grandma and Grandpa Cox, and many beloved friends, were at Heaven’s Gate that evening to meet him when he arrived, smiles on their faces and arms open.
Clint loved his family (a total mama’s boy), friends, fast cars, and living life to its fullest. His children, Tyler and Taylyn, were the apples of his eye and he loved them both immensely, wishing he had more time with them. He had a soft spot for animals and enjoyed taking a morning jog with his two dogs by his side. He donated to causes like the ASPCA to help save animals from cruelty. He could be crazy or incredibly sane, dependent on the circumstances. He held honor like a shield and would protect anyone he felt needed it even to his own demise. He lived life on his own terms and accepted the consequences of his choices never expecting anyone else to take responsibility. A true, loyal and inspirational friend, he would be there to help out when and where needed, always willing to give the shirt off his back or the food from his table, never expecting anything in return. He shared his life lessons learned to help someone through a hard time, always letting them know there was light at the end of the tunnel. They were all FAMILY, whether blood or not, and had to be there to support each other.
He was artistic and it showed in the work he did on his cars as well as his numerous drawings. He lived never looking back and never judged a book by its cover. He shined with charisma and his laughter was infectious. He enjoyed making people laugh and always had such a wonderful way of doing it. He considered everyone a friend whether it be for a day or a lifetime until he had a reason not to. Finally, his forty-five years in this life was not nearly enough and our world is going to be sadder without him.
Thank you for all of the love, the funny, sad, crazy, insane times that we’ve all had. Those will be memories shared, laughed about, cried about, and cherished through time.
