Each Veterans Day since they opened their doors in 2020, Lynn and Jorge Rosende have offered complimentary services to those who have served. As Veterans themselves, the Rosendes, who own Hand & Stone Massage and Facial Spas<\/a> in Fuquay Varina and Wake Forest, North Carolina, understand the importance of giving back to our Veterans.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince Jorge and I are both Veterans, it is our humble honor to show gratitude to those who have placed themselves in harm’s way and still are to defend this country!\u201d said Lynn Rosende, owner of Hand & Stone Massage and Facial Spas in Fuquay Varina and Wake Forest, North Carolina. \u201cIt is our hope that more locations throughout the franchise will also give back on Veterans Day in years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n

This year, their teams were able to gift a total of 74 services to Veterans of the Armed Services who have Honorably Served, Retired Veterans and Active-Duty, Soldiers, Airman and Marines alike.<\/p>\n
