After Dinner food basket and toys were given out to the children at the Jonathan Etterling & Michael Orban
Memorial Food Pantry.
The following day more food baskets and toys were given out to those in need.  We were able to help 180
families this year thanks to all who gave their support, backing and prayers.
On behalf of our homeless, needy veterans and others, thank you for another successful Christmas Program.
 
We called out each veteran by name, branch of service and the years they served as
they came to the front.  Mr. & Mrs. Etterling, who’s son was killed in Iraq from
Wheelersburg, pinned a ribbon with a Medallion on each veteran.
Inscribed on the back of the Medallion it says,
Thanks for serving.  
V.H.V.O. 2009
