I contacted Terrell Lamb and told him some steps he might take with the Columbia office including visiting the office. He and his significant other visited the office Tuesday morning and were told there was nothing they could do except ask for a hearing and that Eugene Coulter didn’t know anything about Blind Pension.

Mr. Lamb was informed Thursday morning that things were being corrected and he he would receive back pay  back to April which should be $6,399.00. They also apologized  for the confusion and inconvenience. The only other thing was he would have to see an eye doctor in January.
