Rich's flag will fly over the post for all of September in his honor.

 

John J. Morris Post 62 remembers former officer Rich Aguirre as Veteran of the Month

Peoria, AZ

On Sept. 1, John J. Morris Post 62 (Peoria, Ariz.) honored former finance officer and Air Force veteran "Rich" Aguirre as Veteran of the Month. Rich was dedicated to the post as much as he was to the Ohio State Buckeyes. While finance officer, he was able to pay off the mortgage on the post. Following his passing we were able to pay off the COVID loan to get us totally free of debt. He also started our member appreciation dinner and meat raffle, which continue today. He will be remembered fondly by several members, never forgotten. Now transferred to Post Everlasting, go with God, Rich!
