To the Editor:
I am a disabled veteran, age 79. Normally I take a walk in the early morning between 6:30 and 7:30 a.m. I need to stay fit, as I am continuously looking for a job.
Sometime last month, during my walk, I decided to stop at Vickie’s Corner Cafe at the McKinley Plaza. It was just a little after 7 a.m., when they have the inexpensive breakfast. I look for bargains whenever I can because I just about make ends meet on the less than $1,000 a month I live on.
