Honoring our Military Veterans
Over the course of the past several years now, I have had the extreme honor to be asked to present my work to military veterans and families. This has truly been a privilege to do this and each and every time, I have returned from each delivery with a gained respect for our servicemen and women.
I offer this to others as a way to honor those who they know or are related to as a way for them to give thanks and honor their own loved ones. The process that is involved is outlined below and uses a recent project I completed that honored a personal family member. My personal and sincere thanks to the family for allowing me to use this outline.
These projects support Project Healing Waters which is an organization which helps to heal wounded veterans and soldiers through fly fishing outings across the United States. A link to their website is: Project Healing Waters
