Dear Soldier: My name is Teresa and I am forwarding this message of respect on behalf of my father, Louie, a World War II Veteran who will be celebrating his 85th birthday on December 5th. Our message is to thank you for the unparelled sacrifice you and your family are making in the name of freedom. May each of you remain safe and when you return home may you live beyond 85 years so we can pridefully honor your bravery, selflessness and commitment. Sincerely, Louie Zimmerman and family

Teresa Armich, Nanoose Bay, British Columbia
