All in all it was one of the best days in a long time. THANK YOU !
Kevin and Carolyn and Jackie, and all the volunteers and supporters, My package had letters from : Kayla D…..Harriett XXX OOO…Naomi Mc….Marycruz D, Auburn High SchoolToday, I had the opportunity to attend a Super Celebration for Veterans at The Church Of God, in Princeton, West Virginia. It was one of the finest gatherings that I have ever had the privilege to attend. There must have been at least 500 veterans and their family members in attendance. There were about 15 WW2 guys, with one gentleman who recently celebrated birthday #102.. We got to hear some great speakers, and were treated to songs provided by a group of 2nd and 3rd grade students from a local elementary school. Then we sat down to a fine breakfast of sausage, eggs, biscuits and gravy, which were provided by local businesses, and served by high school and college students.This annual event is scheduled on the first Saturday in November. And they must have had over 100 volunteers who pulled this event together. There were a few lines while you waited for the care package, but that gave you a chance to chat with the people around you. All in all it was one of the best days in a long time. THANK YOU ! B.H., American Legion Post 311, Pembroke, Virginia
