We were privileged to award a very special Army Veteran his Quilt of Honor during a recent local area event.
Tom has been an integral part of our community for many years, earning accolades and awards for his amazing photographic talent and the thousands upon thousands of photos he's taken throughout the years. Those same people he'd taken photos of, turned out in droves to support him at a fundraising event to help assist him during his recovery.

We were thrilled to be asked to play a small part in this community fundraising event celebrating Tom and his lifetime achievements, including as an Army Veteran. We pray for his speedy recovery.
Congratulations, Tom on your Quilt of Honor Award - a token of our appreciation and gratitude for your Sacrifice and Service for our country.
Happy & Safe 4th of July, Everyone!
