This is what was sent to me:”my husband who dreams of having a beautiful backyard. Ken is returning home for his two week R&R on the 17th of May. For the past 9 years that we have lived in our home he has always been either deployed or stationed overseas. He has never had time to enjoy the benefits of owning a home, especially making the backyard of his dreams. Whenever he comes home he never has time to do anything about the backyard. He deserves this so much and it would be an awesome surprise to see his dream come true before he returns home. I know this is a far out dream to wish for a dream come true for a 21 year Army veteran, we will be forever grateful.”
This seems like it would be a fairly easy thing to do if we can get a few flowers, mulch and shrubs together for this family, I think they would be in heaven. It seems like most of the things I get are about money and VA claims so it is nice to try to do some hands on help every once in awhile.
Thank you for looking at this and anything you can do to help them will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Tom Belcher
