Some Friends of the Soldiers Home volunteers felt so blessed to be part of the RT Chocolate Lovers’ Social, which took the place of the regular Happy Hour on Feb. 26.

Thank you to the FOSH volunteers who came out and to our good friends, the Nam Knights Capital Chapter. Come and join us at next month’s Happy Hour – the days will be getting longer and the laughter louder!
