The local Quilts of Valor program has presented quilts to eight more area veterans.

Receiving quilts in a ceremony at the Decorah VFW Post were Cal Anderson, Frank Lorenz, Bil Rude, Dennis Huinker, Jeremy Bruening, Steve Panos, Peter Rocksvold and John Anderson.

The mission of Quilts of Valor is to cover service members and veterans "touched by war" with comforting quilts.  To nominate a veteran, contact Joni Johsnon at P.O. Box 30, Decorah, with the veteran's name, your name and your phone number.
