JJ’s star spangled salute: A veteran’s dying wish comes true

JJ’s star spangled salute: A veteran’s dying wish comes true 
KFDI 101.3, Wichita, KS; by JJ Hayes; 10/7/24 
We salute Vietnam Veteran Buck Jones. Described as compassionate and a lover of classic cars, Buck was recently moved to hospice.  The man who loved to go to all the car shows stopped due to his failing health. So, the community rallied for the man who served on the minesweeper, the USS Pluck. Instead of finding a way to take Buck to the car show, they brought the car show to him. Dozens of people in the community, one by one, pulled into the parking lot of Buck’s care facility in Oklahoma in classic cars of all shapes and sizes.  He was in disbelief that anyone would do that for him. May you always dream of classic cars, Buck, and THANK YOU for your service.
