14 Dec. 2022 Honoring Kingwood Hero Marine Luke Yepsen Dec. 14, 2022 2004 Kingwood High School graduate, Marine Lance Corporal Luke Yepsen, died December 14, 2006 due to injuries sustained from enemy action in Anbar Province, Iraq serving during Operation Iraqi Freedom. Luke was a proud Marine, and each year near the anniversary of his tragic death, his fellow Marines come to Kingwood to visit with his mom and dad, Sheila and Gary Yepsen. It's a time to remember this brave American and for his fellow Marines to share their stories and help heal the hearts of those that love Luke. Kingwood Rotarians will never forget this young hero, and to honor Luke, his family and his friends, Kingwood Rotarians proudly place American flags in the Yepson's yard on all patriotic holidays, and on the days before and after December 14th. This is our way to let the Yepsen family know that we honor the sacrifice their son made for us, and our great country. The Yepsen family said Luke had a "strong desire to serve the country. He wanted to fight for the things we hold dear and since he was strong and capable, and armed with his faith in God, he felt the need to protect us. That he lost his life so young at the age of 20 and so soon after being stationed in Iraq makes it all the more tragic." Click here for a KHOU Channel 11 report about Lukes commander, Richard Casper. Luke was gunner for Richard's Humvee squad in Iraq. In honor of Luke, he founded CreatiVets, the non-profit organization that makes it all happen, started offering music therapy to veterans in honor of reatiVets, Music can help to heal even the deepest wounds of war. With the help of some famous songwriters, military veterans are sharing their pain through song.
