Will have to save it for another day! Thank God for Wayne, Ronnie and Maryellen for all the support today. They all worked so hard and rolled with the setbacks.

Today I set off for an amazing day of charity work with Veteran #211 Ronnie & College Volunteer Vinny. We loaded up in the bitter cold to make sure Veteran #246 would be able to finally sleep in her new home with a bed to call her own. This move was so special since my Grandparents on both sides lived on Cruger Avenue same street she moved on. I lived here also until I was almost 3. It touched me heart, all aspects of our work make me feel blessed and so alive. The hotel furniture to me is meant to be as well. They come from an older family friend from Yorktown Frank Wortmann. Through his work with Allied Renovating Hotels; we were able to obtain gorgeous hotel donations from the Holiday Inn Express in Hauppauge, LI. (Floors of it) The furniture is all stamped "Made in the USA with either 10/00 or 11/00. Vinny passed away 10/26/2000 & his 21st Birthday would have been 11/5/2000. This is a symbolic gift and a hug from heaven. We're blessed Westy in East Northport has donated 6 months of space that allow us to continue receiving this bounty. It's huge! I feel like family there when I show up. Beautiful place and I highly recommend to all. Our Veteran wrote us a beautiful Thank you card and wanted everyone to know how truly blessed she feels. Here is her recent text. Thank you. It's all so beautiful. Thank you. Your heart is so big. One person makes a difference the vet who asked for help in the beginning and you for responding. Look at what you both have done. God really is a champion of souls because He Loves, We Love and or are the recipients of same. Hallelujah and thank you all so very much. Thank you Donors and Thank you Vinny & Ronnie for sharing today with me. We will have multiple blasts ;)) Veteran #246 –continued Donations - Queen Bed, Easy Chair, Ottoman, 2 Night Stands. - Holiday Inn Express Hauppauge, LI - Frank Wortmann Allied Coffee Pot/Toaster, Queen Sheet Sets - Janet Peck, Fairfield, PA Bathroom/Kitchen Baskets - Janet Hecken, Cortlandt Manor, NY.
