Final Roll Call

Ray Bassler

Post Falls Chapter

This week, our hearts are a little heavier. We’ve lost a brother, a friend, and a steady presence at the table. Ray Bassler brought quiet joy to every gathering. Take a moment to visit his memorial and remember the man who stood beside us.

Posted in

A quiet call for help turned into something much bigger. Within 24 hours, a Vietnam-era veteran battling cancer found himself surrounded by people willing to show up, work hard, and remind him he wasn’t alone. What started as a simple request became a powerful example of how relationships—built over coffee and conversation—can answer the call when it matters most.

Become a Chapter Facilitator

You already know the power of showing up. At The Veterans Club, Chapter Facilitators are the steady hands that keep our weekly coffee meetings welcoming, respectful, hopeful, and focused on forward motion.
You don’t need to be a therapist or motivational speaker. Your role is simple yet powerful: welcome new faces, guide introductions, keep conversation balanced, and protect the positive culture we’ve built — no politics, no debates, just real camaraderie.
We give you the official Facilitator’s Guide, hands-on training, shadowing, and full national support. This is leadership that feels familiar. Service that doesn’t end when the uniform comes off.
The room is waiting. The mission continues.
