“I served my country in World War II,” he said. “I’m a veteran, I served three years, and I’m glad that it worked out real good.”

Today, Meals on Wheels Galveston County is proud to serve Mr. Cavasos. The program makes sure he has nutritious meals and the support he deserves as he continues to live independently at home.

As we celebrate his remarkable life and service, we also honor all veterans for their dedication and sacrifice.
