BURLEY â A handful of veterans gathered at Highland Estatesâ front lobby to receive a salute from their fellow brothers in arms along with a box of gifts and a Christmas stocking teeming with goodies.
The 13-member AM Vets Post 833 and the Rupert Elks Lodge #2106 worked together this year to deliver the presents and stockings to 36 Mini-Cassia veterans living at nursing homes.
âIt was a surprise,â Ralph Gillespie, Highland Estates resident and veteran said after receiving a salute and the promise of the gifts to come.
He is one of seven veterans at Highland Estates.
For about a dozen years, a small band of veterans delivered stockings to other veterans living at one Burley nursing home, AM Vets Post 833 Commander Chuck Driscoll said.
