Notable Passing Of Veteran

He was active in a veterans organization at the James J. Peters V.A.
These days I can’t help but reflect on the mood of the times which is world chaos. However, it’s heartening to know that in our past lives ‘once upon a time’ people sacrificed their lives to make this world a better place for the next generation. Now, however, all we hear about are people who think only of themselves and find satisfaction in destroying the lives of innocent people.
