Serving On Christmas

The sounds of Lee Greenwood's "God Bless the USA" filled the Frewsburg American Legion at midnight on Nov. 13. The local chapter of the Blue Star Mothers had just finished up a fundraiser. Most of the group of military mothers and supporters joined arms and belted out the lyrics together, but Kathy Collver broke down.
With her two sons serving in the U.S. military, Collver began to shed tears. Another Blue Star Mother came to her aid then, assisting her through the difficult time.
As Christmas approached, Collver knew more difficulties were on the horizon.
