“We just want to thank all of our volunteers and everyone who participated, everyone who gave to this great event. Sadly, it’s something that has to be done, but we do this because we love our brothers and sisters,” said Chuck Turner, operations manager for Veterans Miracle Center of Erie.
Turner also said the truck driving down with supplies was completely full thanks to all of the donations.
