Florida Disable American Veterans Auxiliary Member of the Year from Orlando Chapter
by
Chaplain Kathie
How do I write this objectively when the member of the year is me?
The DAV-DAVA Florida convention is usually a great event. This year I showed up with my camera, set it up, filmed a great group of ladies singing and got ready to film the top award for the Auxiliary. My hands started to shake when it dawned on me they were talking about me.
As you can see in this video, I was in shock. When I got up to accept the award, I was asked if I had anything to say. If you read this blog often, you know I am hardly ever short on something to say. The only thing I could say was thank you.
Thank you to all the members of the Disabled American Veterans and the Auxiliary. You inspire me everyday!
That's really a great honor to be recognized for your work. Nice job. I was hoping to see you get one of those nifty crowns.
ReplyDeleteThank you Kathy for all you do for our Disabled American Veterans. Bein a disabled Vet & DAV member myself it does my heart good to see you and such a large crowd of Auxillary Members there. Keep up the good fight and God bless you dear.

To Dana, thank you and I was thinking the same thing. I thought the crowns were adorable! These conventions with the Auxiliary are always a blast.
ReplyDeleteTo Stix, thank you as well and yes, it is great to see so many there and glad to see so many younger ones coming. We need more of them!
