On Tuesday, a World War II veteran was honored at the Lorain County Commissioners meeting. Gordon Greene celebrated turning 100 years old.

"I had bypass twice and I never thought I'd live through that without going to 100. God's been good to me," said Greene, a U.S. Army veteran who served overseas.

Greene accepted a proclamation for the occasion in front of an audience cheering him on at the commissioner's meeting.

News 5 anchor Rob Powers asked Greene if he enjoyed his birthday.

"I enjoy every day," said Greene.
