That is wonderful news. God bless you and Colleen for bringing this to their (and our) attention. Too many Veterans are living alone, proud and stubborn in their independence...unwilling to ask for anything that could be perceived as charity. Bless them for their courage. My neighbor, one of those tough, independent veterans, lost his wife a few weeks ago. His friends held back, not wanting to offend him, but he reached out to us. (^:

Good to hear, I don't think it's easy to reach out when you're lonely.
