Seal Beach, Orange County, California — The American Legion Auxiliary Unit 327 invited all Leisure World residents and guests to come together for a Veterans Day celebration on Wednesday, November 11, at 9:30 a.m. in Clubhouse 2.

The Auxiliary welcomed Rev. Murray D. Finck of Redeemer Lutheran and St. Theodore Canterbury churches as keynote speaker, to deliver a message regarding his participation with the veteran community.

Two local musical favorites, The Velvetones and The Good News Singers, were set to bring patriotic classics to life at the ceremony.

During the event, people had several opportunities to support local veterans programs through fundraisers, including browsing jewelry available for purchase and buying tickets for a chance to win a handcrafted Americanism quilt in the event raffle. Traditional red remembrance poppies were also available for anyone who wanted to wear the symbol of respect and appreciation.

The announcement was published on November 5 by Leisure World Weekly, which pictured Auxiliary President Betty Lucero, Poppy Chair Phyllis Pearce, First Vice President Dolorie Thurner and Second Vice President Marlene Morris with the patriotic quilt to be raffled at the event.
