Free Tax Preparation Help!

AARP is preparing income tax returns for free and will even e-file the return so the taxpayer will get their return within two weeks: either deposited to their account or mailed to them.  I think everyone should be advised of this free service.  All the volunteer tax specialists have to be certified each year.  Also, they do not do returns for active duty military.  Click here for more information!  Thanks to Sarah Toten for sharing!

Dr. Sam's and John Melnick's heartfelt "Thank You" and Tribute to the Veterans of World War Two

A Blue Star Service Banner displayed in the window of a home is an American tradition.  The banner lets others know that someone in the home is proudly serving in the U.S. Armed Forces.
