Nursing Home For Veterans Sought


{Bowling GreenKentucky}…Ray Biggerstaff of Alvaton and Col. Robert Spiller of Oakland have spoken to Bowling Green commissioners and Warren County officials in their effort to bring a nursing home for veterans to the area. Biggerstaff and Spiller have gotten dozens of letters from supporters who include leaders like Warren County Judge-Executive Mike Buchanon, Bowling Green Mayor Bruce Wilkerson and Warren County Sheriff Jerry "Peanuts" Gaines. Biggerstaff says they are still working on getting enough land donated so that Bowling Green can get to the top of a list of cities competing for the next veteran's nursing home in Kentucky. He says a piece of land between 10 and 30 acres is needed.
