Cone is a Navy Veteran and VFW Post 2250 Commander
From City Hall,
The City of Hornell is proud to recognize Keith Cone for his many years of selfless service to our community. A 22-year U.S. Navy veteran and longtime Commander of Hornell VFW Post 2250, Keith has carried his commitment to serving others into every part of his life. Whether helping a veteran in need, supporting a local family, standing behind our first responders, or simply making the VFW a welcoming place for anyone who needs a helping hand, Keith is someone people know they can count on. He is particularly proud of the work done through the Catherine Cone Scholarship, which has raised more than $63,000 to benefit the community.Much of what he does happens quietly, without seeking recognition.
“Keith has a genuine heart for people and a willingness to step up whenever someone needs help,” said Mayor John Buckley. “His kindness, generosity and dedication have touched countless lives and made Hornell a better community.”
