ANTHONY R. PIZARRO SR.
I want to thank Veteran of the Game LLC for giving me the opportunity to be Veteran of the Game on May 31, 2022. It was such an amazing experience. I am a diehard baseball fan born and raised in the Bronx. To be standing on that field in front of the world made it all worthwhile. I feel that this is an amazing thing that Veteran of the game are doing for our brothers and sisters in Arms. It’s things like this that makes us want to keep doing good and positive things. I want to give a special thanks to Tony Ntellas for considering me for the Veteran of the Game and to Craig Cartmell for walking me down to the field and making me feel honored at the stadium. Another big thankyou to Joe Maddon (Manager of the Los Angeles Angels) who came up to me and personally thanked me for my service and shook my hand. That moment was priceless. We must keep this going. We must keep doing things like this for our Veterans so that they don’t feel abandoned, so that they don’t feel like our Nation has forgot about them. Thank you for giving me that opportunity of a lifetime. An opportunity which I will be able to share with my kids and grandkids once that time comes. What an Amazing experience and it was all thanks to Veteran of the Game LLC.
Sincerely,
