Wings over Wendy’s recognizes passing member

By: Cindy Libonati
I know it’s been a little while, but I finally visited my friends at Wings Over Wendy’s. In attendance was Assemblyman Bob Blumenfield who presented a proclamation to the family of a fallen Veteran, Chuck McClure, citing his service to our country. Chuck passed away this last week and his friends and fellow veterans honored him today. It was a touching event and testament to these great men of our community.

Blumenfield also presented a commendation to Wings Over Wendys for their community effort for our veterans.
As I spent more time at the meeting, I announced Marilyn Clancey of “Seniors in Transition” to give the Veterans in attendance information about “Veterans Aid and Assistance Benefit/Pension,” and how they can each apply for this help. This Improved Pension allows for Veterans and surviving spouses who require the regular attendance of another person to assist in eating, bathing, dressing, undressing, medication dosing, or taking care of the needs of nature to receive additional monetary benefits. It’s an opportunity they were all pleased to hear about.
If you have parents that deserve help, I can assist. There are many benefits available to our valued veterans.
