ROANOKE, Va. – In Roanoke on Saturday, Veterans from Melrose Towers were honored with special “Quilts of Valor.” The quilts were made thanks to efforts and donations from the Roanoke Valley Quilts of Valor group and Sirens and Salutes.
Seven veterans were honored in the ceremony for their military service - a small gift to those who served the country.
Oh I loved it - It was beautiful. I loved receiving the gratitude."
Timothy Nichols, veteran
