We are most humbled that we will have Danielle Green and Kevin D. <br /> Kelsheimer present at our next Common Council meeting to represent our community's and our nation's <br /> veterans. <br /> Following their service in two different wars — one in Vietnam and one in Iraq, both decided to give back by <br /> providing critical and needed services to our local veterans. Each of them provide the help and assistance which <br /> goes far beyond any debriefing which a veteran may have had. Each day they commit their time and talents to <br /> working with veterans who may be challenged — whether it be to help provide assistance when dealing with <br /> physically, emotionally, psychologically or returning to civilian life issues; or trying to assist a veteran, a <br /> surviving spouse or family maneuver through the red tape and legalize of applying for veteran benefits. <br /> As we celebrate Veterans Day 2015, let us all give thanks for those who served and are serving. Thank you. <br /> Most sincerely, <br /> Dr. Fred Ferlic <br /> 4th District Council Member <br /> Gavin Ferlic <br /> Council Member at Large <br /> Attachments <br />
