Recognized for 45 years of service to Brookshire Brothers of Fairfield is Ree Martin, who began her position at the store in August of 1979.

Ree says, it started as ‘just a summer job, but it turned into a lifetime career.”

Congratulating her are (at top) CEO, John Aston; Store Manager, Jason Walthall; and District Director, Kent Pursley.

Also celebrating with her was the previous Store Manager, Brian Ingram, who said a few words.

Ree and guests were treated to a cake and refreshments.
