ESGR State Chair Laurie Silvey presents Tazewell County Sheriff Jeffrey Lower with the Above and Beyond Award for his office's support of Illinois Army National Guard Sgt. 1st Class Nicholas Copeland's military career. Copeland said the Tazewell County Sheriff's Office checked on him regularly during a deployment to the Middle East and a co-worker even mowed his lawn while he was deployed so his spouse wouldn't have to. Brig. Gen. Dan McDonough, the Assistant Adjutant General - Air of the Illinois National Guard and Commander of the Illinois Air National Guard, was the keynote speaker for the Illinois Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve Awards Banquet, May 17, at the Marriott in Normal, Illinois. The banquet honored employers throughout the state who have helped their National Guard and Reserve employees serve and defend their communities and nation. By supporting their service members, these employers are also defending our nation, McDonough said.
