Passing of Waldo (Joe) Brunner

Michael A. Monsoor Post 2082 is saddened with the passing of Waldo (Joe) Brunner. Joe served in several capacities at Post 2082. He was a Past Post Commander as well as an active member of the Cooties.  He was instrumental in changing the Post name from Lemon Grove to Michael A. Monsoor. Joe was the San Diego County Veteran of the Year 2010-2011. He was a founding member of the San Diego County United Veterans Council and served as their Treasurer and President. He established the San Diego Veteran's Day Parade Program and served as Chairman for several years.

Joe Brunner was a true friend and advocate for all veterans. He will be truly missed.

At this time of sadness, our prayers and thoughts are with his family. In lieu of flowers, Joe had asked that donations be made to our Post youth programs to benefit our community.
