Julie Newton<br />

Roopers Redemption for 24 Years<br />

roopersbeverage.com<br />

Meet Julie Newton, a dedicated member<br />

of the Roopers team for 24 years. For her,<br />

working in Redemption at Roopers isn’t just<br />

a job; it’s a calling that was tailor-made for<br />

her. Julie can do anything. She even cashiered<br />

for Roopers for a while, but she requested to<br />

be in Redemption. She loves to work hard and<br />

stay busy.<br />

Over the years, she’s witnessed countless<br />

changes and challenges, but her unwavering<br />

commitment has remained constant. One<br />

of her most significant tests came during<br />

a particularly trying period in her life when<br />

her daughter suffered a seizure, followed by<br />

a brain surgery that turned Julie’s life upside<br />

down. The demands of the job, coupled with<br />

the emotional turmoil at home, created an<br />

incredible work-life shuffle. Through it all,<br />

Julie continued to excel, demonstrating her<br />

remarkable resilience and unique dedication<br />

to her colleagues and customers. Her story is<br />

a testament to the strength of character and<br />

the remarkable spirit that defines the heart of<br />

our Roopers family.<br />

To Julie from President Jesse St Laurent:<br />

“First time I remember Julie she was sitting<br />

on the giant rock out front of the Minot Ave<br />

redemption. The redemption was so slow at<br />

the time so Julie was reading a book on this<br />

big rock. The rock is no longer there, but Julie<br />

is still persevering here at Roopers. All of the<br />

years Julie has been here, she has been a rock.<br />

Consistency is such an underappreciated<br />

quality nowadays, but without it, Roopers<br />

would never be where we are at. That is<br />

because of people like Julie. The great thing<br />

about Julie is not just consistency at work but<br />

in her life as well. A great wife, a great, loving<br />

mother, and the rock she is for that family.<br />

I call her OCD at times, but not why most<br />

people think…she knows why and we will keep<br />

it that way!! Roopers appreciates you Julie;<br />

my family will ALWAYS be a Julie Newton fan.<br />

Love ya Legs!!!”<br />
