Nathan P. Newhall

Nathan P. Newhall, 63, of Stamford passed away Sunday, December 13, 2020 with his wife by his side following a battle with ALS. Nathan was born in Buffalo, NY on October 9, 1957. He was the son of the late Mildred (Duprat) Newhall and Byron Newhall. He attended White Plains High School in White Plains, NY. He then received a Bachelor of Administration in Business from Iona College and a Masters in Business from Polytechnic University. After graduating from Iona, Nathan began his banking career at The Bank of New York. His banking career lasted over 40 years. For the past 17 years, he worked at People’s United Bank in Bridgeport, CT. Nathan married his wife Amy Jentsch on May 14, 1988 and they enjoyed a 32-year marriage filled with love and happiness. Nathan had no greater joy than his sons, Nathan and Daniel. His family are members at St. John’s Lutheran Church, in Stamford, CT. Nathan is survived by his wife Amy Newhall; two sons, Nathan (his wife, Alessandra) Newhall and Daniel Newhall; a sister, Priscilla Stonehouse (her husband, David); and by several nieces and nephews. Nathan was a member of the former group Administrative Management Society (AMS) where he met his future bride. When Nathan and Daniel were old enough, Nathan began his scouting career which spanned 20 years. Nathan served as Powahay District Chairman for two terms and Scoutmaster for Troop 5 Stamford for more than 10 years. In those years, he saw 18 Scouts from Troop 5 achieve the rank of Eagle, including his sons, Nathan and Daniel. He was also a Cubmaster for Pack 6 for several years. He was recognized with the “Powahay On My Honor Service to Youth Award”, “District Key 3 Award”, “District Award of Merit”, “Silver Bear Award”, and “Powahay’s Pioneer Award”. Troop 5 loved their camping trips; but their trips to the US Naval Academy for the Merit Badge weekend in January, where Scouts could take Merit Badges taught by the Midshipmen, was always the highlight! There was a love for the Navy. Although Nathan never served, his dad, Byron, would share stories of his time in the reserves during WW2 at the United States Naval Academy before he went to the Pacific. Shortly after Byron passed in 2012, Nathan became a Blue and Gold Officer for the Admissions Office at the Naval Academy. He helped candidates with the application process and interviewed those that were assigned to him in the Stamford area. He was extremely proud of this volunteer job and took pride in what he was doing. His family welcomes all friends and relatives at Bosak Funeral Home, 453 Shippan Avenue, in Stamford on Saturday, December 19th from 1pm to 4pm with a Prayer Service to be celebrated at 4pm.
