Point Taken with Steve Scaffidi & Kristin Brey

Today’s WaterStone Bank Salute to Service honoree is a clear example that overcoming challenges early in life is not only possible, but can also provide a road map for helping other young people in his community. Kenosha County Sheriff’s Deputy Ray Rowe has helped thousands of kids in Kenosha County through his leadership in the DARE (Drug Abuse Resistance Program) and making positive connections with children and adults in his community for over two decades.

Our first WaterStone Bank Salute to Service honoree this year is a great example of the dedication and commitment required to be a first responder during the challenges of a world-wide pandemic. Marco has worked tirelessly through the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the civil unrest in the city of Milwaukee over the last year working for Paratech Ambulance (now Midwest Medical) as an EMT and also as a part-time firefighter-EMT for the New Berlin Fire Department.
