Today we want to recognize Shari Parenteau, a former member of our team who has made a lasting impact far beyond the workplace.
Your dedication to supporting veterans and their families over the years has not gone unnoticed. The time, care, and commitment you’ve given to honoring those who served is truly meaningful, and it reflects a level of character and compassion that inspires everyone around you.
We are especially grateful for the opportunity you’ve given our family to be a small part of that mission through Memorial Day flag placement. Being able to stand alongside you in honoring our veterans is something we deeply appreciate and will always take pride in.
Thank you for everything you’ve done—and continue to do—to support those who have given so much.

🚒 Supporting Those Who Protect Our Community 🚒
The Newport Caring Committee is proud to present a check to Jonathan Delabruere in support of the North Country International Fire Training Service. Through a $5,000 Foundation contribution, we are helping advance their mission to build a fire training facility dedicated to providing essential training for our volunteer firefighters.
This funding will specifically assist with the purchase of two rescue manikins, a critical resource for hands‑on training courses.
We extend our sincere thanks to all of our Emergency Responders for their dedication, bravery, and continued commitment to keeping our community safe. 💙
