This month we are excited for you to get know Newton G. who has been a resident at Woodcrest for the past year. Newt is such a kind and joyful presence in the facility. He is always checking in on his friends and trying to make sure everyone stays positive especially during this past year. Newt loves everything about Woodcrest but if he had to choose his favorite part it would be participating in activities with all his friends.
A little about Newt, he was born in Akron, Ohio but raised in St. Petersburgh, Florida. He moved there with his family when he was 3 years old. At the age of 39 he decided to move back to Kentucky where he got a job as a factory worker. He was promoted to Foreman at a building supply company and held this position for 10 years. For fun Newt and his dad built and drove stockcars for 17 years. He cherishes that time he was able to spend with his father. Thank you for letting us get to know you a little more Newt!
