I’m so grateful to work for the VA. I love knowing that I’m a small part of the process that helps our government give back to the ones who have served our country. I enjoy knowing that the people that help our veteran’s are getting paid. I get to witness the processes {and help slightly} with a new home that is being built in Pell City. Not to mention, we are in the early stages of constructing a cemetary for Alabama’s Veterans. Isn’t that exciting? My grandfather served our country in the Navy for over 25 years. Working here is very special to me!
