Honoring Local Veterans

Proudly Presented in Part By:

Honor a Veteran in Your Life

This Veterans Day, we invite you to help us honor the local men and women who have served in the United States Armed Forces.  Those we are blessed to still have with us and those we lovingly remember. Veterans from every generation and every conflict have shaped our nation’s history, and their stories deserve to be shared.

Beginning November 11th, we will publish individual Veteran tributes on our Facebook page. Each post will feature a photo, name, branch of service, and a short biography or personal message submitted by a friend or loved one. We will continue posting daily until every submission has been shared.

We welcome tributes for any Veteran, living or deceased, from any war or period of service in which the United States has been involved. Veterans from all branches are encouraged to be honored, including the Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, Space Force, Coast Guard, and National Guard.

Submit your tribute below and help us honor our local heroes, one story at a time.
