As a North Carolinian, Libby Dole was one of the very few Republicans I ever voted for. She represented our state well so it has been great reading about her fourth or fifth reincarnation helping veterans’ caregivers wind their way through the system that the VA has become. My mom could have used such after my dad died. The immediate post WWII VA is a far cry from what it is today but things still got lost, ignored or just stamped “Denied” because it was Friday.

At any rate, it’s good to see this happening. I hope it will continue. Good one today, Fred.

Elizabeth Dole grew as a person after the Senate. Her foundation has been critically important in the lives of thousands of veterans and their families. She deserve a toast from all of us for this service to so many.

Thanks for writing this. I knew Senator Dole was working to support vets but man, at 86, she’s still got it going strong.

She is a true public servant.
