QUOTES:
"I accept this award on behalf of the entire Operation: Coming Home and Royal Oaks team," said Van Tassel. "There is power in numbers, and that is what I had behind me in 2010 as we set our focus on accomplishing our goals for Operation: Coming Home II. I have a supportive family, staff and fellow HBA members to thank for our success in receiving this award, and it will continue to be my pleasure to serve the association for many years to come."
