DAVA 84
Since 1922 the Disabled American Veterans Auxiliary (DAVA) has partnered with the DAV parent organization in their mission of service to disabled veterans and their families. That relationship has continued to flourish and the blended organizations have achieved many victories in their quest to improve the quality of life our veterans rightly deserve.

DAVA 84 Quick Review
Good Evening To All
I am thanking all that participated, as well as those that were with us all in spirit, in the 4th of July 2022 Veterans Parade.
It was a wonderful day and we were all very proud to represent our Chapter and Unit 84.
I would like to provide special thanks to the following DAV Chapter 84 Members -
Harold Holloway, Vern Conoway, Don Moore,
Clifford Doubledee, and Rolf Mattar -
for the support and representation.
In addition, I would like to give love and praise to - Mailyn Ross, Maria Holloway, Patricia Conaway, David and Lisa Brown - the Unit 84 Auxiliary members that made the trek with us.
Several Auxiliary members assisted in a DAV sponsored luncheon for residents at the Emory Bennett Nursing Home for Veterans. DAV Chefs Bernie Navarra and Dallas Proax prepared a delicious meal of fried turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, cranberry sauce, mixed vegetables, rolls and assorted desserts.
Auxiliary members cheerfully served residents and staff. As a surprise treat, they also distributed goodie bags filled with personal care items to the residents. It was obvious that the luncheon was a huge success as evidenced by the expressions of gratitude from the residents and staff. The Auxiliary appreciates the opportunity to support the DAV and its mission. We look forward to the next event.

DAV Auxilliary members traveled to Lake Nona and visited with Veterans in the nursing home for Monte Carlo Day. During our visit, cookies,cakes and brownies that were baked and donated by members of the Auxilliary were handed to the Veterans-and enjoyed by all. They enjoyed playing all the card games, Roulette, and Dominoes with the DAV Members-as well as the extra attention they were recieving.
