I am Honored
I am honored and proud to have been nominated for Nevada Veteran of the Month. It is such a privilege to work as Nevada Veterans Advocate. This type of work is much needed in helping our Veterans receive the benefits that they earned. I will continue to support my sisters and brothers in a professional and caring manner.

Re: I am Honored
Thank you all for the kind words. Please keep in mind I don't do this for a pat on the back, I do this because it needs to be done. We have far too many Vets that are clueless about the benefits that they earned for their service and sacrifice to this great nation. We have far too many Vets that are homeless and in need of medical and mental health. Has many of you know I worked for the Federal government for 39 years, 24 of those as a Mustanger in the US Marine Corps. I understand the so-called "red tape" and how hard it is to get a response from an organization that fines it too easy to say "no". I think most of you that know me, know that I don't except "no" for an answer. I am no one's hero but I have walked among a few in my life. Again, thank you.
