Robert LeBrun, aka Colonel Robert at the Roseville Minnesota Kentucky Fried Chicken is celebrating 25 years today of being in America
Robert LeBrun came to America from Haiti on June 14, 1994 as a legal immigrant. He came to the United States at the age 28, married with one son he tells in his thick Haitian-French accent that he became a naturalized US Citizen in 2004.
On his uniform on his nameplate it makes a note of his 18 years as a lobby manager at the KFC in Roseville. If you do the math you’ll realize he was working there when he became a US and Minnesota Citizen officially.
Colonel Robert likes to talk about the better life he has made for himself here in Minnesota especially about his daughter.
If Colonel Robert looks familiar, his picture appears on billboards in the Eastern Metro area advertising mainly the $7.98 Buffet + Soda offer
At the NE corner of Snelling & University avenues.
Colonel Robert is a success story about the kind of immigration all Natural Born Americans can look up to as we have a predecessor who legally immigrated here from somewhere else, to include those ancient migrating ancestors to the American Indians.
We celebrate Colonel Robert’s 25 yrs here today
