St. Augustine Lodge #829 members Randy Cook, PER and Dianne Cook provide ongoing support to the veterans at Clyde E. Lassen Veterans Nursing Home by visiting with residents on the first Monday of each month. They bring a birthday cake and balloons every month to celebrate with the residents, and often they include cards or buttons made for the veterans by students at R.B. Hunt Elementary School. On Jan. 17, they delivered a large-screen television donated on behalf of the lodge.
