What a great thing for that fine lady to do. It just gives us one more reason to believe in humanity.

Re: there are some good people out their
Thank you for sharing that Nakoa!!! 
and KUDOS to the artist for creating those memories for the families!!!
Can anyone think of a good way to start researching on finding out an address for this artist?? I'm thinking I would like to take the info to my legion hall and see about getting some donations together for her and what she does for my fallen brother's and sister's families.

There's a lady in McMinnville who does something very similar, and also sends packages to the military personnel overseas.

Yep, I think she is our daughter's art teacher actually if we're talking about the same lady. She also organizes the troop appreciation event each year. It was Sept 6th this year at the armory. The wife took our 2 oldest kids this year and they loved it.

Yep, sounds like the same one.  To sort of get back to the point of this thread, there are good people out there. Many in our own neighborhoods.
