Rex Lumber Graceville Celebrates Safety, Service, and Dedication at Annual Dinner

On Wednesday, June 18, Rex Lumber Company’s Graceville location hosted its highly anticipated Annual Safety & Service Dinner—an day filled with gratitude, celebration, and recognition for the hardworking team members who keep the company moving forward. From honoring decades of commitment to enjoying great food and fun giveaways, the event was a powerful reminder of the values that make Rex Lumber a standout in the industry.

A major highlight of the event was the recognition of several team members who have proudly reached a significant milestone: 10 years of service at Rex Lumber. Those recognized included Jock Blandenburg, Derrick Crawford, Keith Wasilewsli, Justin Dicken, Lloyd Holland, and Hector Mendez. These dedicated individuals have shown unwavering loyalty by arriving early, working hard through long shifts, and helping to build a culture centered around safety, strength, and unity.

Their decade-long commitment has been instrumental in the company’s growth and success, and Rex Lumber couldn’t be prouder. Rex Lumber Company posted on its Facebook page, “From early mornings to long shifts, they’ve helped us grow stronger, safer, and more united as a team. We’re grateful for everything they do.”

In an especially moving moment of the day, Rex Lumber honored Romilia Bautista for her extraordinary 20 years of service. For two decades, Romilia has been a steady, reliable, and inspiring presence on the team, according to the company. Her commitment has seen the company through seasons of growth, transitions, and challenges—always meeting the day with determination and grace.

Rex Lumber posted on its Facebook page that Romilia is “a team member who’s given her all, day in and day out.” The post continued, “Through growth, change, and challenges, her loyalty, hard work, and heart have shaped who we are.”

The celebration of Romilia’s milestone drew cheers, applause, and heartfelt appreciation from her colleagues. It was a moment that captured the essence of what makes Rex Lumber more than just a workplace—it’s a community.

The day also marked Rex Lumber’s ongoing commitment to safety—a core value that underpins everything the company does. The Annual Safety & Service Celebration is not just about honoring years of employment, but about highlighting the everyday actions that protect and support one another on the job.

Team members enjoyed a delicious steak dinner complete with baked potatoes, fresh salads, and plenty of good conversation. The meal was a small way to say “thank you” to the team that works tirelessly to maintain excellence across the board.

To add a little extra excitement, the event included drawings for cash prizes, gift cards, and other fantastic giveaways, sending many home with big smiles and even fuller hearts. It was a well-deserved celebration that honored not just milestones, but the shared effort that goes into every success at Rex Lumber.

As the event came to a close, there was a strong sense of pride in the room—a reflection of what happens when people work with purpose, safety, and loyalty. Events like this one remind us all of the importance of showing appreciation, celebrating one another, and building a future together.

Congratulations once again to all honorees and thank you to every team member for making Rex Lumber the exceptional company it is today.
