Old McMicky's Farm Gives
Second "Mission I Do" Wedding
for Wounded Veterans
 Old McMicky's Farm is proud to announce we are providing a second Free All-Inclusive Wedding to Wounded Veterans on Friday, February 6th with help from local business partners.
The winning couple are Kathleen Evans and Gregory Edwards! Both Kathleen and Greg served in the Military and both are Veterans with combat injuries. Kathleen joined the Air Force in 2003 as soon as she graduated high school. During her time in service she deployed to Iraq and was attached to the JSOC unit. Greg's service in the Army began in 2000. Greg was deployed to Turkrit, Iraq in 2003 in the very beginning of the Iraq Campaign and he accompanied troops into combat as a combat medic. 
 
"I love the fact Greg is also a combat veteran; even though we didn't serve together, there is still this bond that I could never have with somebody who hasn't served.  I think he understands me more than I understand myself sometimes; he is my best friend, and we enjoy life together." 
- Kathleen
