Welcome Home

I have to say that VSPA's response was more than one could hope for. I am so proud of my brothers for
showing so much support and caring for this event. I now have an even GREATER pride in our association
as a result -- if that's even possible. Thank you Don for all of your work!!!! Regards, Ed Daubert
