and the people from Quilt of Valor came to the party and awarded him the quilt. I have never seen my brother so excited over anything and so honored over that quilt. He took it into his room as soon as they left and spread it out on his bed so that he would be warm when he went to bed. The quilt of Valor Foundation are wonderful loving people.
Hearing stories like this brings happy tears to my eyes. It is good to get feedback, but you usually can tell when you give it, the veterans are appreciative. They are so humble and we are so proud of them! Give your brother a hug from me and I too, thank him for his service.
