he AARP Las Cruces Chapter found a special way to honor New Mexico’s veterans this past Veterans Day -- bringing some comforts of home to the New Mexico State Veterans Home in Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. Currently there are 77 residents living there.
“It was something we felt strongly about doing,” said Dave Lynch, chapter president and AARP New Mexico volunteer state president. “Especially since we couldn’t do anything in 2019 due to the pandemic. So the Chapter decided this year to adopt the state Veterans Home.”
