Thank you from a veteran

 

To the Editor;

On Nov. 11 it was just a trip to the Dover-Foxcroft Hannaford grocery store for some milk when, at the checkout, a friendly voice asked, “Are you a veteran?”

“Yes,” I replied.

Whereupon the lady at the register reached for an envelope in which I later found a Hannaford gift card – a “gift” from Will Wedge and his store.

His gesture was a recognition of every veteran’s service to our country. It was a thoughtful and generous token of gratitude. To him, in return, I say thank you for caring. Thank you for remembering and for being a true patriot.
