I received this note from Rev. James Dancy, our American Legion District 2 Chaplain about asking that you listen tomorrow [Saturday July 26, 2014] on 720 am KDWN radio from 1700 to 1730 [5:00 pm to 5:30 pm in civilian time] to him on Veterans Talk – The Forgotten Promise.  He would also ask that any of you that have personal knowledge of this practice of someone other than the family engaging a minister to officiate at a funeral without approval or knowledge of the family so we can spread the word that many of our Veterans service organizations have chaplains or volunteers that would serve in this capacity for free, as a sign of respect and honor for our fallen service members.  I am requesting, on his behalf the widest dissemination of this chance to help spread the word to our brothers and sisters!  Thanks for your service and I will be listening along with you to this program!

Afternoon Roger, I was wondering if you could put it out that I will be a guest on the radio tomorrow night [Saturday July 26, 2014] on 720 am KDWN "better known as K Don" talking about the fees that funeral directors and or clergy charge for conducting services for our veterans at the Boulder Southern Nevada Veterans Memorial Cemetery.

The average is somewhere between $200 and $400 to have people who have never met the veteran that have passed, and many times do not know the families, yet charge these huge sums for a 20-30 minute service when there's really an American Legion, Vietnam Veterans of America, or Veterans of Foreign Wars or other type of veteran's organization that all have chaplains and many would gladly do it for free!

It sure would be nice if I could get some folks to tune in and maybe call in! The program is Saturday night from 5:00 to 5:30 pm and is called Veterans Talk -- The Forgotten Promise!

Thanks,
Tiny
