Pictured is Mr. Howard Shriver, a WWII veteran who served in the Marianas Islands and the Philippines. He lives in an assisted living facility in Marietta, OH and will celebrate his 98th birthday on July 12.
Let's make his 98th memorable.
I am asking anyone who would like to thank a member of the Greatest Generation - the first Soldier called up from Williamstown, WV - to send a birthday card. I'd love to see him get hundreds of cards, to show appreciation and give him something to talk about for a while.
If you can support him with a birthday card, the address is (I have his permission to share):
Howard Shriver c/o Brookdale Senior Living 150 Browns Road, A16 Marietta OH 45750

The cards are a great idea. I’ll forward the message also. Thanks for posting.

Just called the facility to confirm and it is legit. In fact, the lady sounded so appreciative.

Thank you! I have a little bible study with my neighbor girls and we are going to make him a card. It is a chance to teach them about WWII and John 15:13!! Blessings to you!
