My Nonprofit Reviews

I don't know ANYONE more dedicated to a cause then Gary and Maryann - to paying respect for past veterans of WWII and working to keep their contributions to our country and it's freedom, a PART of our society. That all they gave should NEVER be forgotten!!

I have worked with them for decades and helped with their programs. They give not only with their hearts and personal time but have totally devoted their lives to this cause. They are looking for SUPPORT to keep the memories, the stories and the legacy of this important time of our country ALWAYS in our view. Over the years they have traveled at their expense to other states, to attend funerals of these honored soldiers. They have attended more services then all the veterans I know put together.

The idea of building a museum, dedicated to these veterans is something they have worked on for many years. That would be the greatest way to pay tribute to these soldiers and not allow the ventures and lives given to be forgotten.

I support them 100 percent and will do whatever to support their efforts.

I have known Gary and Marianne since they started this adventure. I do similar work with my own historic interests. We have often worked together with organizations to support their history and I have in return always been available when I can to work help them with their events. These events are always with a focus on the THOSE THAT DID WORK before us! To Honor them and give them the respect they deserve.
Gary and Marianne are dedicated and devoted to this subject, and have given more, much more than any others I have ever known. Every day, every thing they do, every trip they make and every hour that work - is all for the memory and honor of those people that have given so much to insure that we have the freedom and choice of life that we have today.

All that they do is about issues and battles that were previously fought to give us in America those rights. Regardless of the trails and issues that they have encountered to build their museum and tribute to this part of our history - they have always stood for what is most worthy and I will always be there to support their efforts in return. The traveling museum that has been their dream for so long and now has become a reality, is the ever changing display of all that they have researched, collected and those items that families have entrusted them with to help build and keep this honorary tribute to their loved ones going.
I am and will always be very proud to have them for friends and support their efforts. RSB
