The Solera Diamond Valley Quilting Angels in Hemet, California managed to give 14 QOV's to some of the community veterans at the Veteran's Day Celebration in the lodge. We lost one of our Angels to Ovarian Cancer, but managed to gain two more and they earned their wings on that day.
Russ Patterson (shown with Jody) is 80 on Veteran's Day and can still wear his uniform. Alonzo was the oldest veteran present - at age 84 (shown with his wife Jenelle holding the red/white/blue QOV.)
