Sometimes we forget that the people protecting our country come from communities just like ours.
This week, Winter Haven lost one of its own Captain Khork, who was killed while serving overseas.
As someone who has also worn the uniform, I know the level of sacrifice that comes with that responsibility. It takes a special kind of person to put their life on the line so the rest of us can live ours in peace.
My thoughts and prayers are with his family, his friends, and everyone here in Winter Haven who knew him.
Captain Khork, thank you for your service and sacrifice. You won’t be forgotten
