Commander's Column
Greetings;
Comrades and Members of the Auxiliary
I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving with family and friends. With less than 25 days away from Christmas, and the ending of a year approaching. Our post will be involved with some community participation. All are welcome to attend, please look over the upcoming events and post VPRS.
I like to thank our VFW Post VOD, Patriots Pen and Teachers Award Programs Chairman Joel Sanchez, Merlene Peters, Auxiliary Scholarship Program Chairman and all those who assisted in the selections board. Also I would like to say a Thank You to our post “Honor Guard”. These veterans give their time often with only a few hours’ notice to perform services for our fallen comrades.
Last month VFW Post 7110 lost a comrade in our ranks, VFW Life Member Salvador Diaz Sr. – U.S. Army / WWII Veteran. Let us always remember those who loss a love one or friend. Keep them in your thoughts and prayers.
