It is both an honor and a privilege to be able to help our fellow veterans in memory and honor of Lance Cpl. Jonathan E. Etterling. Before long we will have a shelter in our area for homeless veterans in his memory. Veterans Helping Veterans & Others has been reaching out to our veterans since his death in 2005. He was a young man that we can not let fade away in the future. As long as there are those who support Jonathan's work through V.H.V.O. we will continue in his memory. Jonathan would have been proud to know that fellow veterans and their families are receiving help in his memory. www.veteranshelping.org
