2017/AARP Special Report:  Why Medicare Matters

March 7, 2017 | AARP's Opposition To The American Health Care Act

Houston County Habitat For Humanity Veterans Day Gala | November 11, 2017Had the privilege/honor of “escorting” (our very own) Miss Ivis Bedrick (96)! Miss Ivis is a World War II Veteran having served in the United States Coast Guard, trained as an Administrative Assistant/Recorder … mastering shorthand which she still uses today!  Attendees at our AARP Chapter 1952 “sponsored table” included Miss Maryellen Thompson (Miss Ivis’ driver and widow of MSgt Tommie Thompson | United States Air Force/Vietnam Veteran), Mr. Charles Bell, Jr. and Mrs. Zylpha Pryor-Bell (son and daughter-in-law of Mr. Charles Bell, Sr - recently deceased (8/30/17) | United States Army/World War II Veteran) and (chapter member) Mrs. Nancy Hardin! We all truly enjoyed the evening’s events … purpose, meal, entertainment, awards/special recognitions, etc.  Especially proud that our chapter members - Miss Ivis Bedrick, ** Mr. Charles Bell, Sr, ** Mr. Ernie Braun (deceased 11/19/15 - World War II Veteran) and I were formally “recognized” among the many veterans!  CLICK HERE for FaceBook Interview (Miss Ivis and Colby Dee)! -- Greg
