My Vets arrived this evening. One couple wanted to take us out to dinner tonight, but DH had a procedure this afternoon and we had just eaten. It was sweet of them. BUT that is not what prompted me to post.
Unfortunately, the timing sucked with one room needing to get keys, but a guest from October called tonight because he wanted to send me something for the Vets. I told him he already had given John something for the Vets before he left. We chatted for a while, but not as freely as I would have liked. So I sent him an email tonight telling him each Veteran will find a Gillum House envelope with a note card with a $20 in it stating Thank you for your Service from a Gillum House Guest. I wanted him to know what I had done with his generous gift. That call was so thoughtful.
