Let 90 year old WWII POW Veteran keep his bees

Let 90 year old WWII POW Veteran keep his bees

The Issue

A friend of mine by the name of John Bacon is being picked on by the City of Auburn. John is 90 years old and is a WWII POW, one of the oldest living POWs in the U.S. John has been a bee keeper since 1953 at his home just two houses away from me. The city is going to take his bees away from him at the next city council meeting on September 17th at 7 PM.

The bees help John cope with his time as a POW and keep him going at 93, not only to relax him, but it is his income as well selling honey and renting his bees. Apparently someone said one of his bees stung them. How did they know it was John's bee or even another stinging type insect? Pass this along to as many people as you can. Lets help support a World War Two Veteran and POW survivor
