(Mostly serving) Mr Charles I Kennedy memorial service will be at McKoon Funeral Home on Jackson St, Newnan on Monday, July 20th at 4:00 pm. Donations in lieu of flowers can be made to the Coweta Veterans Club. I've attached a Korean War photo of Mr Charles, a short 8 page book of his Memories of the Korean War and his Shadow Box image.
It is with great sadness that I report the loss of one of our fellow comrades today. Comrade Charles I. Kennedy passed away at approximately 1000 hours this morning. Mr. Charles had just completed shoulder surgery last week and was in rehabilitation in Fayetteville where he was found unresponsive by attendants and rushed to the hospital. He died a short time later.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family of Mr. Charles. When funeral arrangements are made, I will update the website. VFW Post 2667 conducted our Post Officer elections for the 2020 - 21 year. Here is your new slate of officers who were installed at the May meeting and have taken office on June 30th when the new State Commander was installed.
Congratulations officers! We are here to support you!
Our awesome Auxiliary is collecting backpacks to support the homeless veterans program at Ft. McPherson. These backpacks can either be new or used, but in good condition. They are collecting backpacks through August 8th so if you have an opportunity to support this project, please drop the backpacks off at the club no later than August 8th deadline.
National Council Member (Georgia) and Jr Vice Commander-in-Chief candidate Al Lipphardt and his wife Carol were in attendance.
Just finished Patriots Pen Presentations at Madras, Smokey Road, Arnall, & Evans Middle Schools. Congratulations students!
