More than 150 veterans attend LWC Appreciation Luncheon

By Venus Popplewell

"As we pause each year to honor and celebrate our veterans, we remind ourselves that freedom is not free."

That was a part of the message delivered by U.S. Marine Corp Lance Corporal, retired, Richard Schmidt at the Lindsey Wilson College 20th-annual Veterans Appreciation Luncheon held on Friday at the Adair County VFW Post 6097.

"Today we celebrate Veterans Day," Schmidt began. "We are part of a special legacy that remains faithful to the mission to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies. Our values have remained the same: God, country, and family. Our praise and remembrance of those that are not with us is a part of how we honor our veterans. When we serve others it is also a way to praise and honor the legacy that we carry on."

More than 150 guests attended the luncheon on Friday which was free and open to all area veterans.
