First Veterans Day baby honored

Kaysen Ray Bear was the first baby born on Veterans Day at Memorial Hospital of Sweetwater County. He was born at 2:25 p.m. Monday, Nov. 11, to Latasha and David Bear of Rock Springs. He weighed 8 pounds, 9 ounces, and was 19.5 inches long. Kaysen has an 11-year-old brother and 7-year-old sister.

To celebrate the occasion, the American Legion Archie Hay Post 24 family gave the baby a big bath tub full of goodies. It includes diapers, baby wipes, some outfits, hand-crafted quilts, hand-crocheted stuffed animals, bath items, towels and more.

“It’s a gift to the community and something for us to celebrate on Veterans Day,” Gina Dusel, Auxiliary Department of Wyoming President, said.
