DeKalb County recently declared June 14 at Kenneth Streater Day in honor of the Korean War veteran and longtime county volunteer.

Streater, 72, served as a U.S. Marine for three years during the war, returning to become a regular blood donor in DeKalb. He has donated more than 15 gallons of blood.

Streater also worked for 55 years as a poll official for the elections board, including the last 10 as manager of the Tucker precinct. He is retiring from that post this year.
