A Veterans Day Breakfast is only the first invitation

A Veterans Day breakfast gives neighbors a welcome reason to sit together. Someone pours the coffee, someone makes the meal, and a veteran hears a sincere thank-you. Jefferson County's November observances offer that opportunity. Yet the most meaningful part of the gathering may be what happens once the tables have been cleared. The veteran who enjoyed conversation on Tuesday may need a ride to an appointment next month. A widow may appreciate company on an ordinary Thursday more than applaus
