A great honor
On April 29, I was among the veterans returning to Fresno on the Central Valley Honor Flight.
I wish to wholeheartedly express my gratitude to the many local supporters and to Al Perry and his staff. It was a great honor to be a part of that whole experience (I was one of the five women veterans).
So I thank you all very much. What a beautiful tribute by so many people giving us the opportunity to see the memorials in Washington, D.C. The warm receptions we received more than once were heartwarming.
Please accept our appreciation for your recognition.
