senator, pat roberts, is a native kansan.senator roberts joined the effort to build a memorial to honor one of kansas' favorite sons when he took on the role of chairman and 2015. throughout his life, the senator has devoted to the citizens of kansas. and on the national level has been a congressional leader in the sectors of agriculture, healthcare, and defense. but most importantly, senator roberts is a man of character and that is best shown through his ability to have balanced his lifelong career as public servants along with the steady devotion to his family. together, he and his wife of over 50 years, franky who is joining senator hirono tonight, have three children and seven grandchildren. we are grateful for his service to our country. for his leadership with the eisenhower commission, and for being here to speak with us tonight live, rain or no rain. it.
