KNUE + Patterson UTI ‘Hometown Hero’ of the Week: Steven Yates of the U.S. Army

All of us at 101.5 KNUE are proud to be part of East Texas, and we are especially proud to live in a place where we hold our military and first responders in such high regard.

KNUE + Patterson UTI are proud to announce this week’s “Hometown Hero," Steven Yates of the United States Army.

Mr. Yates, of Marshall, was nominated by his wife Alisha Yates, who had this to say about her husband:

I would like to nominate my husband Steven, because he is such a wonderful friend and soldier. He's always there when anyone needs to talk, and he's always there to defend what's right. He is currently deployed to Kuwait and will be there for the next year. He came home seven months ago from his deployment in Korea. He loves what he does in the Army and is so proud to be able to defend his country. We lived in Killeen, Texas near Fort Hood before he was deployed.

To show our appreciation for Steven's dedication and service to his country and community, he will receive a plaque courtesy of Congratulations Awards in Jacksonvillle, They specialize in awards, engraving, trophies, plaques, gifts and more. He also will also receive a gift pack from Edible Arrangements.
