Dear Brothers and Sisters of the Auxiliary,

I want to take a moment to thank each and every one of you for the time, energy, and heart you devote to our mission. The work we do together—serving our veterans, their families, and our communities—is not always easy, but it is always important. Each program you support, every event you help with, and every kind word you share makes a difference.

Our District 21 Auxiliaries shine because of you. Whether you are a new member just beginning your journey or a seasoned officer leading by example, your contributions matter. You are the reason our organization continues to grow stronger and remain a vital part of the Veterans of Foreign Wars family.

Please know that your dedication does not go unnoticed. I am proud to serve alongside you and to represent such an outstanding group of men and women. I want you to always feel that I am approachable and here to support you—because I truly am. If you ever have questions, need guidance, or simply want to share an idea, do not hesitate to reach out. You can text or call me at 727-674-3950 or email me at stoneylawrentz@gmail.com. 

Together, we will continue to honor our veterans, uplift our communities, and ensure that our Auxiliary remains strong and united. Thank you for all that you do—you are deeply appreciated.

With gratitude and respect,

Stoney Lawrentz-Edwards
President, VFW Auxiliary District 21
