May We Thank You From the Houston County Veterans Service Office

Written by on May 18, 2022

Throughout the month of May, KQ98 is giving our thanks and salutes to all of our local veterans. We’ll highlight area VFW’s and other organizations that work with our veterans and their families to make sure they get the best possible care.

Earlier in the month, Brandon Scott in the morning talked with Robert Thoen, from the Houston County Veterans Service Office, about some of the benefits and organizations that veterans and their families can take advantage of not only in Houston County, but in the state of Minnesota.

Robert returned to chat more in depth about a few other topics such as; what the Minnesota State Cemetery in Preston offers to veterans, the Memorial Day weekend event put on by the cemetery, how the office in Caledonia helps with stones and veterans markers along with several options, and a new law recently passed on how a widow of a deceased Vietnam Navy veteran can qualify for benefits that veteran would’ve had.
