My family owned a mobile home park in Cheyenne, Wyoming when I was growing up and through the years, my father would put me to work on various tasks. Mowing lawns, painting picket fence, or anything he needed and I could do. There were a number of WWII veterans that lived in the park and I don’t remember who it started with but, one of them hired me to fix something. Before long several were hiring me to replace faucets, seal roofs, build stair railing or whatever they needed.

Holdenville, OK — In a compelling address to the Holdenville City Council, Doyle Tampleton, a Two Purple Heart Veteran and Spokesman for the American Legion, passionately advocated for the renaming of a creek that flows through Stroup Park. The proposed name, “Veterans’ Creek,” carries historical significance tied to the Workers Progress Administration (WPA) era.

As the leaves turn and the air grows crisp, a day of profound significance approaches – Veterans Day. On November 11th, we gather as a nation to pay tribute to the brave men and women who have selflessly served in the United States Armed Forces.
