Veterans to be honored Wednesday in Carson City at Sierra Place Senior Living
The Nevada Department of Veterans Services NDVS will be recognizing and honoring veterans living at the Sierra Place Senior Living assisted care facility in Carson City.
The men and women who have served in the military may believe their service to has long been forgotten. But through an NDVS program called, "Veterans in Care," these veterans receive recognition, in a special ceremony where they are awarded certificates and service pins.
Carson City Mayor Bob Crowell will be on hand to help honor and recognize these veterans.
Wendy Simons, NDVS Deputy Director for Health and Wellness said, "These ceremonies can be and are often very emotional." She added, "We are making it a point to reach out senior citizen communities to make sure we identify these veterans and thank them for their service."
The ceremony will be held from 3:30 PM - 4:30 PM on Wednesday, January 25, 2017.
