For those of you sending a birthday card to our Veteran the lady organizing shared an update with pictures of him opening some on the cards. His face isn’t shown for privacy. I have the original post pinned with the address if you want to send a card
Update!!!!
2nd update!! 4/1/2026
Its so exciting to see the cards coming in( I added the new pics) Cards are coming in from Californa, Arkansas and WI 20 more as of yesterday which brings the total to 70👏👏👏
He asked me why I was doing this and I said becaue I don’t know anyone else that’s 100, we all love veterans and because you’re a good guy!! He is very appreciative for sure and its definitely bringing a smile to his face ( misson accomplished)

So my post received an overwhelming response ❤️ and I just wanted to share with everyone , I went to get my mail today and it was stacked with birthday cards. It’s the second time I went to my post office box since my post as of today he received 31 cards 🙂 as he was opening them, he said This is very heartwarming !!:)
We had so much fun opening them together, looking what cities they came from, a couple kids wrote to him, and I truly can’t thank everyone enough!! His birthday isn’t until May 9 but at this rate, I am taking them as I get them to him because if I waited until the end, it would be very overwhelming to open them all at once. I will share some pictures of him opening, but I don’t want to show his face just to keep his privacy.
Thank you to everybody that has reached out❤️❤️❤️
I’m asking for help! Let’s make Arnie’s 100th birthday special!!( he lives in Clinton)his birthday is 5/9
I’m hoping to get 100 birthday cards, store-bought, handmade it doesn’t have to be anything fancy.
A little backstory, Arnie is a World War II vet. His wife passed away 13 years ago, he had 2 sons and one son passed away and he has one son alive no grandchildren and is a wonderful man with great stories. He’s just a little bit lonely so I wanted to make this one of his best birthdays
If you could mail a card to the address listed in the pictures that would be awesome!! I’m not looking for any monetary gifts or anything like that. Just a simple birthday card handmade or store bought would be perfectly fine. I just want to put a smile on his face.😀🎁🎉l
