Today Post Commander Michael L. Emerson with Post members Steve Spatola and Harold Miller (and Harold's wife Carol) visited Veterans at "The Commons" assisted living facility in north Stockton, California. We were able to wish them Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and Happy Holidays. We had a chance to talk to each of them, we learned what branch of service they were in, where and when they served, etc... We also gave them each a small Christmas tree to remember us by, it was nice because some of them did not have a Christmas tree in their rooms.
