(a 501(c)3 proudly serving Wounded Warriors and their Families)

Some say the Greatest Generation was those men and women who suffered through the great depression and went on to fight World War II. Tales of uncommon valor and patriotism were commonplace. Many wonder where heroes like those might be today. I know firsthand where hundreds of them are.

They are recovering in San Antonio, Texas at Joint Base Fort Sam Houston from wounds and injuries

sustained in combat thousands of miles from home.

I have had the privilege and the honor to get to know some of these young men and women and the loved ones who care for them. They are part of an all volunteer military filled with integrity and courage, proudly fighting against tyranny, willing to give up their lives for total strangers.

Returning Heroes Home was founded with the mission to provide comfort and support in the best possible healing environment to our nation’s Wounded Warriors and their Families on the long road to recovery. Helping them feel at home until they are able to return home is what we do.

We need your donations of used clothing and household goods.

We were formed to serve young men like Lt. Larkin O’Hern, 2006 West Point graduate, triple amputee who after his recovery has elected to stay in the Army, currently in a fellowship in Washington, D.C. hoping to give Congress a glimpse of the valor of his generation.

We serve young women like Larkin’s wife Rachel, his high school sweetheart, who spent two years in San Antonio by his side during countless surgeries and outpatient procedures, bandaging his wounds, and quite literally carrying him at times.

Your donations will be used to support the Medina Childrens Home in Medina Texas and Boles Children’s home in Quinlan Texas.

Call 888.733.7380 or 210.733.8888 and we will come to your home to pick up donations, or drop off your donations at Texas Thrift Stores.

We also pick up after your garage sale

With more than 600 outpatient wounded at any given time, and many with recovery periods as long as three years, Returning Heroes Home saw a tremendous need to create a “community” for social and emotional healing where they live and recover. Our proudest accomplishment has been the funding and construction of the Warrior and Family Support Center at Fort Sam Houston and adjacent “Freedom Park” including a running track, fitness stations, water features, an amphitheater, and a children’s playground. It also

serves the special needs of patients such as burn victims whose inability to regulate body temperature makes it impossible for them to enjoy the outdoors without the shade structures with ceiling fans, misting systems, and special night lighting that the park provides. The facility hosts over 100,000 visits each year, helping young men and women create a new “normal” with hope for a future.

Philip M. Mueller Memorial Playground & Park Dedicated!

On October 31st the Big Springs Homeowners Association dedicated the Philip M. Mueller Memorial Playground & Park. The playground was made possible through the generous donation of Mr. Mueller’s widow, Jude’ C. Mueller.

Viki Melton, Big Springs HOA President, said their neighborhood had always wanted a playground but lacked the funds to build one. “Mrs. Mueller has been a wonderful asset to our community since she moved here 2 years ago. She always volunteers to assist with our neighborhood activities but this amazing donation was more than we could have ever envisioned! Our three Big Springs neighborhood are ecstatic with the new playground and are profoundly grateful to the Mueller family.”

One of the best parts of the holiday season is the beauty of the various light displays throughout the Stone Oak area. As we decorate our homes and businesses for the holiday season, please remember our standard holiday light guideline is lights being turned on the day after Thanksgiving, and having all seasonal decor down by January 15th.

Happy decorating!

From The Stone Oak Property Owners Association Construction Update: Please be advised construction will be happening at Oak Centre and Stone Oak Parkway over the next few weeks thru the end of December. Due to an increase in traffic problems at this intersection, traffic patterns are being adjusted. Traffic exiting from Oak Centre onto Stone Oak Parkway will now be forced to turn right (North) onto Stone Oak Parkway. Crossing to the median to make a left (South) turn will no longer be possible. A road will be open on the Baptist Hospital campus that will connect Oak Centre and Madison Oak for those drivers who need to make a left a turn so they may go to the light. Please be patient during this construction and plan accordingly.

Manager’s Update: At this time of Thanksgiving, it is important we remember those who have sacrificed so much for us to be able to celebrate this special time of year.

In this issue you will find an article about Returning Heroes Home, a non-profit that works to ensure these men and women and their families are taken care of in their time of need.

This organization began in one room in the Fisher House on Fort Sam Houston. In this one room were strangers meeting each other with one common bond- a wound from a war in a far off place most of us will only ever see on TV. All were welcome- wounded soldiers, and their loved ones.

Many family members leave their jobs and families to come here for months while their loved one heals. This one tiny room provided them a family away from home where they could meet one another, watch movies, get job education or find a job, find a donated book to read, find out about San Antonio, or just find a hand to hold- all vital parts of the healing process. The need was quickly recognized for a much larger facility that could support the needs of these soldiers and their special families. And thus, the Warrior and Family Support Center was created. This is a state of the art facility funded by donations that supports these special families- some whom have arrived with no means of support – financially or emotionally. This facility ensures each one realizes how appreciated their sacrifice is. If they need something to eat, if they need to find a job, learn a new skill, watch a movie, or just need a hug. This facility is there to ensure they and their families are skilled to deal with any changes. From therapy to friendship, this is truly a blessing for our wounded warriors.

Prepare Your Home for the Winter Chill During the winter months, days are shorter and outside temperatures are lower, increasing the need for the use of home heating equipment. However, heating equipment also is the leading cause of home fires during the months of December, January and February.

• •

As temperatures begin to drop, be prepared. Use the following tips to reduce accidents while keeping your home warm from the winter chill:

• •

• Have working smoke alarms in every bedroom, outside each sleeping area, and on every level of your home. Also maintain carbon monoxide alarms in a central location outside sleeping areas. Test smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors monthly.

• A natural gas appliance getting adequate oxygen and adjusted properly will have a blue pilot or burner flame. A yellow or orange flame may indicate a problem and should be checked by a qualified technician.

• If you suspect carbon monoxide in your home, open windows to ventilate the area and shut off your furnace and other natural gas appliances.

• If you or your family suddenly experiences severe headaches or feels nauseated, tired, dizzy or faint, or if you smell something similar to rotten eggs, leave your home immediately, without using any electric or battery-powered items. It could be a natural gas leak. Call 9-1-1 and CPS Energy at 353-HELP

(353-4357). Do not use a telephone or flashlight, do not switch lights on or off, and do not light a match when you smell natural gas in your home.

Keep flammable liquids and spray cans at least 3 feet from heating equipment including your furnace or portable heater.

Portable space heaters should be turned off every time you leave the room and before you go to bed.

Never place anything on top of a space heater.

Purchase heaters with a “tip switch.” These switches turn the heaters off if they are knocked over.

When using a gas space heater, leave a window open a couple of inches for proper ventilation.

Never use the kitchen range as a space heater. This can damage the range and produce dangerous carbon monoxide.

Follow manufacturer’s instructions with all appliances. Have home-heating appliances installed, serviced and repaired by qualified professionals. Have your central heating system inspected annually by a licensed professional.

Keep a (A, B, C rated) dry chemical fire extinguisher in the kitchen.

Keep chimney flues and vents for appliances clean and in good condition.

In the event of a power outage: □ Keep a flashlight and a battery-powered radio nearby. □ Report outages to 353-HELP (353-4357) or call toll-free at 1-800-870-1006 in rural areas.

You and your family plan to stay in your home for many years to come and we want to help protect that dream. Do you have the right coverage to help make sure your family can maintain their current lifestyle in the event of an unforeseen illness or death?

If you’re not sure of your answer, we can help. Ask us how we can help protect your family’s dreams.
