Friends and strangers alike have rallied to raise money for Richard Overton, a 110-year-old veteran living in Austin, TX to stay in his home. A GoFundMe page was established to help costs for 24/7 home care in order to help keep him out of a nursing home since the VA does not cover 24-hour care. Overton has lived in his home since1945. The initial goal was to raise $50,000 and the page has raised well over that amount.
