Each Friday morning at 6:30 a.m., 98.1 KHAK's Brain & Courtlin pay tribute to an Eastern Iowa first responder. The weekly honoree receives a $25 gift card to Wild Hogs Saloon and Eatery in Walford and a $25 gift card to Honor and Respect.

Today we honor Kevin Maiers, who was nominated by Jenna Maiers! The entry reads:

"Kevin is a member of the Farley Fire Department. His grandfather, father, and brother were all also members, and he has unselfishly followed in their footsteps. Kevin is on the Fire Department for the sole purpose of helping others. He is always helping at the station as a handy man, and gives up time with his family to help those in the community. He never desires recognition, but he more than deserves it! We are so proud of you, Kevin!"
