Feb. 1 should have been the day Rob Newberry died.
It happened within minutes: Newberry, participating in the same team training class at Genesis Health Clubs in Clive he s attended for the last three years, was talking to his trainer about how to improve his mile time on the treadmill.
Then his wife, Dawn, watched him collapse.
At that point, Clive Fire Chief Rick Roe said, Newberry became one of 350,000 a year who suffer sudden cardiac arrest. For some reason, his heart just stops beating, and he’s laying here, Roe said. He has less than a 10% chance of survival at that point.

Tuscaloosa StoryWalk Rescheduled
The Tuscaloosa StoryWalk has been rescheduled. Originally planned for April 10th, 2021, the event will now take place on April 11th, 2021. The announcement was posted on the Tuscaloosa StoryWalk s Facebook page, with the threat of severe weather being the reason for rescheduling.
In a press release earlier this week, the University of Alabama assistant professor said, “It s a great way to get the community motivated about healthy lifestyles, nature, and literacy. I also thought this would be a good way to get my students involved in the community - a way for them to learn about important community issues regarding health, nature, and literacy; enhance their civic skills and values, and find personal relevance in the work.”
