Citizens Dedicated To Preserving Our Constitutional Republic
CLAREMORE VETERANS CENTER CHRISTMAS 2016
The Christmas season at the Claremore Veterans Center began in earnest on December 1st with holiday decorations being changed over from Thanksgiving to reflect the upcoming holiday. The second week of December saw the beginning of an almost daily visit from local schools and churches to provide carolers to tour the facility entertaining the residents and employees with a variety of Christmas songs, much to the enjoyment of all. Christmas cards began arriving in huge volumes during the 2nd week with residents being overwhelmed with cards of Christmas cheer, some with money enclosed. Several civic organizations joined in the entertainment and provided gifts for residents. Again this year the recreation staff was overwhelmed with the volume of gifts donated for the benefit of the residents. The auditorium, a room about 120 feet long and 50 feet wide, was packed with items donated for the residents. The unit parties and gift distribution occurred on Friday, December 23 with each resident receiving 4 or 5 very nice gifts. The generosity of the local and surrounding communities once again impressed me greatly. It is very comforting to me to see the outpouring of love for veterans who served this nation from 2 years to 30 years, some in war and some in peace, but no distinctions are made because all of them deserve, and receive, the respect and love of grateful citizens. Each of the residents were willing to sacrifice whatever was necessary to preserve the freedom that so many others had fought and/or died to procure/preserve in times past.
