The father of Gavin Newsom, California's Governor-Elect, has passed away at the age of 84 after a long illness, it was announced on Wednesday.


Newsom's transition team released a statement announcing the death of retired Justice William Alfred Newsom III.


'The Newsom family is deeply saddened to announce that the Governor-Elect's father - avid environmentalist and retired Justice William Alfred Newsom III - passed away peacefully this morning at 9.59am at his home in San Francisco.


'Justice Newsom was a proud, lifelong Californian, a public servant of profound accomplishment and a powerful voice for individual rights and environmental protection.'

His death comes less than a month before his son is set to officially succeed Jerry Brown as the 40th Governor of California.


Gavin Newsom, the former lieutenant governor and onetime Mayor of San Francisco, assumes the top office in the state on January 7.


'He may not have gotten to see Gavin sworn in. But he saw Gavin elected governor of this state, which was a great source of pride for Billy,' said John Burton, a close friend of William Newsom's and former member of Congress from California.

Brown appointed Newsom to the Placer County Superior Court in 1975, during Brown's first term as governor, and later put Newsom on the state Court of Appeals in 1978. He retired in 1995.


He was a staunch advocate for environmental protection, serving on the board of the Sierra Club Foundation, the group's charitable arm, and of the Environmental Defense Fund.


Occasionally Newsom was restricted in how much environmental advocacy he could do while serving as a judge, former Sierra Club executive director Carl Pope said.

He and Newsom were close friends, with Newsom serving as the best man in Pope's wedding.


In addition to Gavin, Newsom is survived by a daughter, Hilary.


He and their mother, Tessa Menzies, divorced when Gavin Newsom, 51, was young.


William Newsom made a home in the community of Dutch Flat in the Sierra Nevada foothills and fell in love with the landscape and nature there, Pope said.


It inspired him to help form the Mountain Lion Foundation and lead a 1990 ballot measure to ban mountain lion hunting.


'That was his country,' Pope said.


During his gubernatorial run, Gavin Newsom said his favorite memories with his father were spent camping and backpacking along California's rivers.


His father once had a river otter as a pet, he said. His father also helped shape his views on drug policy and racial justice.


'He had an amazing life. He was an amazing influence on me,' Newsom said.


On the court of appeals, Newsom ruled on a diverse array of cases from the right of privacy for HIV-positive health care patients to the liability of the San Francisco 49ers over a player's crippling knee injury.


In one prominent case, he ruled the prestigious Bohemian Club, a men's club north of San Francisco that counted Ronald Reagan as a member, could not enforce a ban on hiring women.


In a statement, Brown said Newsom was 'a longtime friend, a champion of the environment and someone whom I was proud to appoint to the superior court and court of appeal.'





Gavin Newsom also served as Mayor of San Francisco. At the time, he was married to Kimberly Guilfoyle, a former prosecutor in San Francisco and Los Angeles

Newsom was a close friend of Gordon Getty, the son of oil magnate J. Paul Getty, and managed his personal finances. During Gavin Newsom's gubernatorial run, critics painted him as a son of wealth and privilege because of his connections to the Getty family.


Gordon Getty helped finance Newsom's first wine shop in 1992, which later grew into a successful business line.


William Newsom's friends said he was thoughtful, witty and well read.


Pope, his longtime friend, recalled that Newsom even looked for ways to stave off boredom during his frequent drives from the foothills to San Francisco for court sessions.


On occasion, he'd place a book of poetry on the steering wheel to read while driving.


After learning that, Pope joked, he never wanted to share the highway with Newsom again.


'He had a very, very active mind,' Pope said.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
