It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Larry Newbold, who left us peacefully on September 28th, 2025.
Born on January 10, 1948, in Weston Ontario, Larry made and maintained many friendships from a young age. He believed “you are who you walk with” which illustrates the many incredible friends that he has to this very day.
He was a devoted husband, dad, grandfather, always placing his family at the center of his world. His warmth, sense of humor, and steady guidance will be remembered and cherished by those whose lives he shaped.
Larry had a lifelong passion for sports, leading to many personal and professional achievements. He grew up playing hockey, later to become an avid golfer travelling the world playing the game he so loved. A fanatic of the Yankees, Green Bay Packers and Chicago Blackhawks, Larry cheered with passion for his teams.
He will be deeply missed by his wife Jo-Ann, daughter A.J., son-in-law Greg and grandson Owen, as well as extended family and many dear friends.

Posted on: Saturday, October 4, 2025Larry was always a gentleman and supportive to friends of the Newbold family.

Posted on: Friday, October 10, 2025Larry’s passing was such a shock for Margaret and I. My memories of our friend go back some 60+ years and all the sports, get togethers we enjoyed together. Trips to Myrtle Beach, Florida and a great number of hockey tournaments. Larry was one of the kindest considerate man and a pleasure to call him our friend. Heartfelt condolences to Jo-Ann and family.

My sincere condolences to you and your family.
Larry was truly a man’s man — but also very much a woman’s man. I was fortunate to get to know him well, and we shared many wonderful conversations about life. We giggled and laughed often, and I’ll never forget one golf getaway when he surprised me by singing Johnny Cash songs — he knew every lyric! It was such a memorable time.
We’ve lost a great man, but I know he’s now at peace, watching over all those he loved. 🥰
R.I.P. Larry — until we meet again.
With love,
Faye & Bob
