Final Years

Newman spent his final years quietly, moving with his wife to England in 2007 to be nearer to their daughter. He died of pneumonia in Oxford on August 13, 2010. The public announcement of his death was delayed for a little over a month (until September 15), to allow a period of private mourning for his family. Newman was survived by his wife and daughter.

Famous quotes containing the words final and/or years:

    It is the final proof of God’s omnipotence that he need not exist in order to save us.
    Peter De Vries (b. 1910)

    Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
