TO RICK'S COUSINS AND FRIENDS, My deepest sympathy to a dear Veteran and member of our VFW POST 10722. I am a member of the Ladies Auxiliary, and remember seeing him at our monthly meetings. We would chat sometime about our aches and pains, We used to joke about how great it is to get old. May you rest in peace and thank you for your service.
