COLUMBUS, Miss. (WCBI)- Over 100 fruit baskets will be delivered to elderly residents thanks to a columbus air force base tradition.

The honor guard delivered the goods throughout the city Tuesday. The fruit baskets are apart of the “Happy Christmas Fund.”

You may remember a story that ran on WCBI about the late George “Happy” Irby. The “Happy Christmas Fund” was created by Irby, who was a longtime member of the Columbus club.

Irby saved his tips to buy gifts for others around the Holiday.

Recipients of the fruit baskets were chosen by the Department of Health and Human services.
