Each month in 2023 the Jackson Parish Heritage Quilt Guild will present a different veteran with a handmade quilt in appreciation of their service. Pictured with members of the Guild, is Roy Smith, a resident of Forest Haven Nursing Home and Rehabilitation Center, located at 175 Thrasher Drive in Jonesboro. Born in Bienville Parish, Roy is 88 years old and a veteran of the United States Navy. Thank you for your service, Mr. Smith. You are appreciated!
