Jeff Gural and his support of veterans

Dear Editor,

I have been a member of the Valley Color Guard for more than ten years and I believe I am qualified to make the following assessment. The Valley Color Guard works tirelessly to ensure veterans receive the final military honor and respect that they have earned. 

As much as it is a privilege, it can also take a personal toll on the members of the Guard. That burden has been lessened in recent years by the unconditional support of Jeff Gural. 

Jeff Gural, the owner of Tioga Downs exemplifies all the values associated with never forgetting those who have served and have earned the heartfelt admiration of every member of the Valley Color Guard.

Sincerely,

Charles Zimmer

Waverly, N.Y.
