Earlier this month Representative Amy Elik encouraged students and residents to make valentine cards with a special thank you, including well-wishes to veterans that served our nation in the U.S. Armed Forces. Within days of the announcement, Elik’s office received several handmade valentines from district residents and received hundreds of additional valentines by the time her office was ready to deliver on Friday. The valentine cards were delivered to six long-term care facilities located within the 111th District, just in time for the veterans to enjoy on Valentine’s Day.
