My heartfelt sympathy to the Newton family. The loss of a loved one is so devastating. A scripture I have found comforting is Isaiah 41:10 where it tells us to turn to God for strength and comfort. He promises to “fortify” you and “hold on to you with His right hand.” May the God of all comfort be with you at this time. (2 Corinthians 1:2-4)
