The veterans' gratitude was conveyed by organizer Darrell May, who stated, "The ladies of the Conroe Service League are amazing cooks and have hearts of gold!" Sharing today with them is a blessing.
Also present at the event were the homeschooled children of CSL members, who assisted in the distribution of sweets to the veterans, resulting in an endearing and memorable interaction. May added with a smile, "The veterans were unable to refuse the children."
