VFW 823 Auxiliary Member Profiled In Local Paper

Congratulations to VFW Post 823 Auxiliary member Millie Lairson. Millie was recently profiled by the Jackson Citizen Patriot. She came to the CitPat's attention due to her years of volunteer service to the Jackson community. Unmentioned in the article were Millie' hundreds if not thousands of hours spent working on behalf of the Veterans of Foreign Wars over the years. Work that continues to this day.

Congratulations to Millie! Thanks for all your efforts on behalf of our community and our veterans.

When Mildred Lairson retired from Jacobson's Stores, people began asking her to volunteer. Twenty-two years later she's still saying yes.

"I like to volunteer," the 85-year old Jackson resident said. "People need it, and they appreciate it."
