Our Local Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 3699 and it's Ladies Auxiliary - put together a Loyalty Day Dinner where we invited Local Civil Services officers and other member of the community that dedicate there lives to providing there Country with great service. I would have loved to print the write ups I received from there chief's - they describe the great service and hard work each individual performs on a daily basis. (I didn't think to get permission) It's our first event so it was all a learning experience.

I forgot to excuse my husband who was in the hospital, and therefore I was on the mic. I would like to Thank all our Local Agencies for there support in returning phone calls and emails, to provide me with the information that I needed to be able to finish the job my husband started. Thank you all - and we hope this will be a yearly tradition.
