Korean War vet has given decades of dedicated service to community
Editor:
Korean War veteran Joe Gehl‘s 94th birthday was last month. His humility, composure, compassion and character are among the qualities that compelled me to attempt to pay tribute to the person I regard to be an exemplary human being.
As a founding board member of the Albion Betterment Committee, 501(c)(3), Joe embodied decency and genuine concern for others, irrespective of superficial differences.
Whether it encompasses his work with Orleans Habitat for Humanity, his involvement with Holy Family Parish, or anyone of several other beneficial roles, Joe Gehl gets it done, and has for some time.
To me, Joe exhibits the very best of what it means to be a selfless Christian.
With sincere appreciation,
Gary F. Kent
