HOPE NEWTON

Hope Newton of Lodi, California, 87, went home to meet Jesus, her Lord and Savior, the morning of Tuesday, September 15, 2020. Hope was born to Antonio and Refugio Daniel in Holtville, California, October 16, 1932. She worked for Safeway 36 years, retired in 1988. It was at Safeway, that she met the love of her life, Roland Newton. On their first date, Hope and Roland had their first kiss; with a “clink” of their glasses a match was made in heaven. They were married three weeks later for over 55 years.

Hope was a dedicated and passionate member of St Anne’s Catholic Church serving in Jesus’ name. She served as an Eucharistic minister to elderly shut-ins and was an active member of Legion of Mary and Daughter’s of Isabella. Hope also enjoyed being a Spanish Speaking volunteer at local schools. During her retirement years, she enjoyed traveling with her late husband, hosting family dinners and shopping for a bargain.
