LA Police Officers Surprise Lonely WWII Veteran With Christmas Tree, Decor and Presents
Two Los Angeles Police Department officers recently surprised a World War II veteran who was alone for the holidays with a Christmas tree, lights, presents and cheer.
Officers Able Torres and Natali Nunez first met 94-year-old Herman Perry last Friday when they responded to a call from Perry’s neighbor Amy who was concerned for his welfare after she hadn’t seen him in about a week, Nunez told ABC News today.
“Amy was aware he was recently released from a VA hospital due to an injury from a fall, so she was concerned when she hadn’t heard from him as usual,” Nunez said. “She tried calling, knocking on the apartment and getting touch with his niece over in Massachusetts, but no one had heard from him, so she was really concerned.”
