Wesley Village honors vets

United Methodist Homes' Wesley Village Campus honored its 39 resident veterans at a special breakfast in November.

The campus also invited veterans of the skilled nursing facility from the Wilkes-Barre Veterans Hospital to join the party.

In what has become an anticipated annual tradition, honorees entered the celebration under an allée of flags waved by Wesley Village staff.

At the conclusion of the meal, all veterans in attendance received personalized certificates and a flag pin, both provided by Veterans of the Vietnam War in Pittston.

Social Worker Ellen Machovec organized a patriotic collage-making activity in advance of the event and projects were displayed throughout the dining room to add to the festivities.
