Local Veteran to be Awarded Quilt of Valor

By Jack James
A local veteran will be awarded will be given to an unnamed local veteran soon! On Thursday, August 16 at 11 am at the Lavaca Senior Center, a “QUILT OF VALOR AWARD” will be given to that veteran by the Quilts of Valor Foundation. The quilt will be given to this veteran for his service in both the Korean and Vietnam conflicts/wars.
The Quilts of Valor Foundation’s mission is to cover service members and veterans touched by war with comforting and healing Quilts of Valor. This national organization is made of quilting groups from all 50 states. They have quilted and given over 193,000 quilts for service members and veterans.
Please drop by the Lavaca Senior Center and help us give this honor to one of our own who, like so many other, stepped up when called in service to their country!
