Sen. Chris Jacobs introducing Veteran of the Month Allen Prame.
Senator Chris Jacobs Veteran of the Month Program began in the fall of 2017. On Thursday, March 8th, Sen. Jacobs came to the Golden Age Center and presented a proclamation to Grand Island American Legion member Allen Prame as the March 2018 Veteran of the Month. Allen served in the U.S. Navy from 1948-1952 as a machinist in post WWII Europe. When he returned, he was a member of the Teamsters for 40 years in the trucking business. As a past commander of the American Legion, he has devoted countless hours at the annual Hanging Basket sales and Patriot Day Poppy fundraiser. This past fall, his self invented, donation receptacles enhanced the visibility to the public during the fundraiser. Allen has been married to his wife Goldie for 65 years, soon to be celebrating 66!
