Story:

My dad was deployed to Vietnam for 24 months in 66-68. He served in the Army for 10 years or so. He loved the army, loved his country, and always wanted to be part of the Veterans Breakfast Club. After his retirement he helped raise my kids, then was stricken with neurological problems and diagnosed with cancer. He passed away in November 2025.  I wanted to honor his memory in an appropriate way and figured this is a good place for that. Thank you so much!
