When Annemarie Patterson of Ahwatukee needed help to make needed repairs on her home, she finally found it from Realtors who shared a bond with her.
Members of the Veterans Association of Real Estate Professionals came to her aid when another organization turned her down.
Patterson served in the Army for just under 15 years, ending her service with the rank of a lieutenant. She was deployed to Saudi Arabia in Desert Storm, deployed again on humanitarian services for hurricane and wildfire help with the National Guard.
