Nov. 21, 2011 - PRLog -- The Buckingham senior living community recently hosted a day filled with events to honor those veteran residents who gave their time and risked their lives so many years ago.  The festivities began mid-morning when The Buckingham residents and guests were treated to a special luncheon followed by a presentation by Welcome W Wilson, Sr., who served in Japan as a U.S. Naval officer during the Korean War and is now Chairman of the Board for GSL Welcome Group.  

“Veterans Day is always a special time of year here at The Buckingham,” said Deborah Mahrt, lifestyles director for The Buckingham.  “We have so many wonderful and amazing veterans that call The Buckingham home, and each year it is inspiring to hear their stories.  We are honored to be able to recognize them each year.”
