Valentine for Vets

| 18 Feb 2013 | 08:49

    Thank you to the Warwick Middle School for again hosting “A Valentine thank you to Warwick veterans.”

    For the sixth consecutive year the Warwick veterans and their wives were honored with a grand breakfast by the students and faculty of the Home and Careers department.

    A smorgasbord of fruit salad, juices, hot breakfast food, bagels, homemade coffee cake, muffins and pastry were prepared and available to all.

    Ongoing background music began with the playing and singing of our National Anthem followed by the school string ensemble and a guitar group of musicians with vocalists.

    For two hours we were fed, entertained, served and given a wonderfully warm reception.

    There was a drawing for two dozen Valentine pillowcases - all custom-made by the students.

    Our thank you to all the students who were exemplary young Americans. We are very proud of them.

    Our thank you also to the faculty who organized this undertaking.

    It was a very special time for all of us.
