MELISSA JARBOE, 34

Hero: My husband, SSG Jamie Jarboe, taught me the true meaning of selfless sacrifice.  When I was little, I wanted to grow up and be successful, I thought that meant I had to work my way to the top of a corporation.

Top Ten Restaurants

Six Washburn University Leadership Institute students/food critics were tasked with determining the top 10 restaurants in Topeka.
