Strong Valley Wealth & Pension was a gold star sponsor and participated in this day of honor to show gratitude for the sacrifices made for us to enjoy the lives we live. 

This important “In Their Honor” golf tournament originally began in 2005 with a very small field of close friends, in commemoration of Corporal Jeremiah Baro and Lance Corporal Jared Hubbard who were killed in action in 2004.  However, the brothers of Jared Hubbard immediately joined the Army to honor their brother. The youngest of the boys, Nathan Hubbard, was killed in action in 2007 leaving the oldest brother Jason no choice but to return home. In consideration of family and sacrifice, the Hubbard Act was passed in July of 2008 by President Bush; allowing the sole survivor of families to take Honorably Discharge and return home with full benefits.

Today the Annual Veterans Day tournament honors eight graduates of Buchanan High School: Rowan Walter, Jared Hubbard, Jeremiah Baro, Anthony Butterfield, Matthew Abbate, Brian Piercy, Nathan Hubbard, and Nicholas Eischen, now known as the “Buchanan Eight.”

As our troops return home, many struggle with injuries and health conditions that make the challenges of life even more demanding. Our contribution helps with the rehabilitation needs of many, assisting in the inexperienced battles with both physical and emotional disabilities. Our local Veteran’s Affairs Medical Center does their part to help get these men and women the treatment and care they deserve, with hopes they too can live the American Dream.
