The VFW National Home for Children is served by Lipan Country's Roy Ator (Update: $3.5 Million was collected!)

Roy Ator of Lipan has the pleasure of serving on the Board of Trustees of the VFW National Home for Children located in Eaton Rapids, Michigan.

During the upcoming Memorial Day period, General Motors' GM, Pontiac and Buick divisions will be donating $100 from each US car and truck sale for the benefit of the VFW National Home for Children. Several million dollars will be raised for the Home's facilities. Since 1925 the Childrens Home has been serving the children and families of our nation's veterans and active duty military members.

Roy, a submarine veteran, along with several of his family have a long tradition of serving in the US military. On the Lipan Telephone Company's Local Subscribers Web Pages Roy proudly shares some highlights from his Navy career.
