The TCFFFV Poetry Journal Volume One

The Cuddy Family Foundation for Veterans is excited to present its first poetry journal to help support its primary missions: to employ veterans, to serve the essential survival needs of homeless veterans and others in peril, and to provide long-term sustainability training and transitional support to secure stable living arrangements for our clients. We would like to send sincere thanks to the many veterans, active duty personnel, dependents, family and friends, and other poets who have submitted their original poems for this effort. We will be publishing these journals on a quarterly basis and appreciate your continued support. The following poets submitted original compositions for this effort: Danielle Howland, Addie J. Kent, Marv Levy, Noelle Butkevic, Aubrey Webb, Tanya R. Whitney, Mara Adamitz Scrupe, Steven Ott, Michael Lalancette, Michael Dalton, Bob Staranowicz, Michael A. Harris, Major Kathleen Trew Swazuk, Dave Glenn, Fiona Pitt-Kethley, Valerie Ormond, Kirsty Niven, Liz Rogan, Declan Boyle, Joseph P. Murphy, Nicole Lordi, Julie Singleton, Gary E.
