Kelly Owen:
I would like to salute my grandpa, Robert Bierbaum. He was a private first class in the United States Marine Corps during the Korean War. Right now he is 90 years old and he is still working every single day. He'll drop anything to help our local community, even if it's in the middle of the night. He just had a full hip replacement about a month ago and he is already up on a ladder. Every day he has a pint of 31 flavors pralines and cream and 3 beers. My dad said that my grandpa is "the toughest man he has ever, or will ever meet." A lot of that toughness and strength comes from being raised on a farm, but the other way he developed it is through being a marine. My grandpa loves beer, ice cream, the American people, and the American dream and that's why I love him.

I'd like to salute the most humbled and selfless veteran I know , my mom , Lisa. She always , and I mean ALWAYS puts everyone before herself. She loves with a love that is hard to describe to those that just don't know her. She doesn't ever really get the recognition she deserves when it comes to Veteran's day because she's very to herself. I love you mom , & thank you from the bottom of my heart for your service.
