To the Editor:
I am an 80-year-old disabled veteran existing on a very small compensation payment – not so disabled that I cannot work, but no one will hire me. I live alone in a one-bedroom apartment, government subsidized. My real enjoyment is feeding the many birds who visit in front of my home.
I spend lots of money when I buy the 40-pound bags at Cosco. Behind my apartment is a small field and then the Green View, or West Creek, Cemetery.
