Mohawk Veterans Haul Load for Wreaths Across America

Calhoun, Ga. -- For Ronald and Lea Eppich, Wreaths Across America is personal. The Eppichs, who are Mohawk truck drivers and Calhoun residents, know firsthand how much it means to the families of fallen soldiers when a wreath is placed at their graves each year. Their son, Sgt. Robert Eppich, died in 2006, just days after completing eight years of service with the U.S. Army.

“For me, Wreaths Across America has always been about honoring Robert and his fellow soldiers,” said Lea Eppich. “It’s important to me, because this is the time of year we miss him most.”
