It’s that time of year—Fall and Christmas Bazaar season!
The Weisbrod Hospital Auxiliary and its members throughout the years have one money-making project and it’s their annual Fall Bazaar.
The money raised from the annual bazaar purchases many extra items to support the Hospital and Extended Care Unit residents.
Saturday evening, American Legion Post #125 held their annual supper to thank all Veterans for their service to our country.
Forty-four veterans, spouses and guests attended the supper from Eads, Sheridan Lake, Towner, Kit Carson, Cheyenne Wells and La Junta.
Every year, we set aside Veteran’s Day for America’s heroes. But is this one day enough?
One day per year doesn’t amount to weeks spent in foxholes in the French countryside. One day per year doesn’t suffice for months of day and night patrols through Fallujah. One day per year doesn’t replace the years of sorrow felt over fellow soldiers fallen in Vietnamese jungles.
We owe a debt to these men and women whose military service has ensured our way of life and our freedom. We owe a debt to them that we can never repay in full.
“He who is full loathes honey, but to the hungry even what is bitter tastes sweet.” Proverbs 27:7
