News summary

Multiple ceremonies across the U.S. have honored veterans with Quilts of Valor, a program that awards handmade quilts to service members and veterans who have been touched by war as a gesture of appreciation and healing. These quilts are crafted by volunteers, with each stitch considered a prayer for the recipient's service, and are intended to become family keepsakes bearing the veteran's name, rank, and service details. Events in Hughesville, Lamar, Corpus Christi, and Wingate have recognized veterans from various branches of the military, including those who served in conflicts ranging from World War II to more recent engagements. Organizers and veterans alike emphasize the importance of community support and gratitude across generations, highlighting the personal significance and comfort these quilts provide. The Quilts of Valor Foundation continues to expand its outreach, with chapters such as Happy Valley QOV presenting thousands of quilts since their inception. These ceremonies serve not only to honor military service but also to foster healing and recognition for veterans and their families.
