Restore Hope for Veteran Robert Korepta

On April 18, 2025, our community faced a heartbreaking event when local veteran Robert Korepta's home was engulfed in flames. Thankfully, Robert managed to rescue his beloved pets, but the damage was devastating. Without insurance, due to unforeseen circumstances, he now faces the daunting reality of cleanup and rebuilding.

Robert dedicated his life to service, first in the Army and later as a Forestry Technician in Fires and Fuels, where he retired on June 30, 2004. He shared a beautiful 47-year marriage with Kathi, the love of his life, until her passing in June 2023. Now, it's our time to step up. Let’s unite to show our gratitude and support for this incredible veteran. By raising funds for the repairs to his home, we can help restore a structure and a sense of stability and hope for Robert. Every contribution counts—let's make a difference! An account will be set up for donations at 44 North (Lebanon branch), or they may be dropped off at Hangry Solution, 940 S. Main St., Lebanon.
