Remembering our veterans and military service members

Posted

The EPVMER2021 committee, again this year, encourages sending a greeting card and/or letter to a veteran or an active service member you know. Or address it "to any veteran" and mail it to your church, or to the Volunteer Office, VA Medical Center, 830 Chalkstone Ave., Providence, RI. 02908. The VA Medical Center welcomes cards (birthday, get well, thinking of you) all year round. Or mail to the RI Veterans Community, 480 Metacom Ave., Bristol, RI 02809. Let them know their military efforts are not forgotten and they are appreciated.

Read more about the contributions of many of our veterans and military members on the E. Prov. Military Service Honor Roll. View visual tributes of the honor roll as well as photos and video taken at the E. P. Veterans Memorial Expressway double Re-dedication event held last Nov. 2021. https://sites.google.com/view/epvmer2021 
No internet? View it on the computers at the public library.

Biographies of the veterans with individual war memorials in E. P. have been written. Last call to reach their families! A new list of relatives is posted. If you recognize a relative's name, please ask that person to contact epvme@hotmail.com  ASAP to pre-view and edit the bio. This collection will be finalized soon so it can be printed in 2023.

Thank you, veterans and military service members, for your service to our country!
