HERINGTON — On Tuesday, Kansas First District Congressman Tracey Mann led the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the renaming of the Herington post office as the Captain Emil J. Kapaun Memorial Post Office Building.
Mann sponsored the legislation to rename the Herington Post Office in honor of Father Kapaun.
On the day after Memorial Day, Rep. Mann gathered with Kansans to celebrate the life and legacy of Father Kapaun, a man of God who showed incredible bravery and selflessness in his service. My prayers are with the Kapaun family as we celebrate Father Kapaun’s life and sacrificial love. May the Captain Emil J. Kapaun Post Office Building in Herington serve as a reminder of that great love and as an inspiration to do likewise for generations to come.
