    A room at Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Ohio, across from Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio, was rededicated last fall in honor of Chief Warrant Officer 3 Emmanuel “Manny” Kidd, who died of cancer in January 2015.

    Members of the Ohio Army National Guard Warrant Officer Candidate School raised funds to continue sponsorship of the room in memory of Chief Kidd. Ronald McDonald House Charities provide low-cost or free housing to families of seriously ill children while they are in the hospital.

    As part of the rededication, Chief Kidd’s widow, Priscilla, accepted the National Guard Association of the United States (NGAUS) Eagle Rising Award for outstanding Army National Guard warrant officers, on behalf of her husband. Chief Kidd, formerly of Cincinnati, received the award posthumously for his work as OHARNG Warrant Officer Candidate School (WOCS) course manager and TAC (training, advising and counseling) officer for Headquarters, 2nd Battalion, 147th Regiment (Regional Training Institute).
