Medically RETIRED. That is why he didn't have a haircut.

We celebrate you! We mourn your sacrifices and losses. Congratulations Lance Corporal Jordan Houston.
I don't know your inner pain, but I've seen that pain, that I see in your eyes, often. Thank you for your service.

Looking for assistance for a Veteran battling cancer and just lost his home due to a fire.

Northern CA folks if some of the lodges can assist it would be great. He is considered unhoused so when the time is right a Welcome Home Kit is applicable.

Shout out to Santa Ana Elks Lodge 794, in California, for holding their committee meetings and educating the membership on what this committee does and offers. Especially inviting the teens so they know what is all about. We are certain that will be receiving new members to this committee.

Great job on this !

Today Edward H Fugee III, the love of my life. The man who had the kindest heart and love for others.
The man that will hold honesty as one of his dearest attributes forever. The man who served our country for 8 years in the United States Air Force. Then volunteered for 11 years as a firefighter. Making Lieutenant.
Who has a heart of gold and a compassionate soul.
The man who cares for me like no other. He quickly adapted to caregiver and not just husband. The man who loves all our children and would give them the world. Who can't be without our grandsons Aaron and Damian and enjoys just hearing their voices.
The man who is a professional, a businessman, and a friend to all is celebrating his birthday.

Happy Birthday to the love of my life. My Heart, My Soul, My Everything. May your next turn around the sun be met with more fun and romantic adventures and service to those who need us most.

I love you husband. Your Wifey, Nayda
