Today, we honor the mothers and families who have endured the ultimate sacrifice — those who have lost a loved one in service to our nation. Their grief is immeasurable, but so too is their strength. They carry the legacy of their sons and daughters, husbands and wives, fathers and mothers who gave everything to protect the freedoms we hold dear. On Gold Star Mothers and Families Day, we stand together to honor their courage and remind them that their loved ones are never forgotten. Their stories live on in the hearts of a grateful nation. To the families who bear this incredible weight — you are not alone. You are supported, cherished, and your strength inspires us all. ____ Jason Van Camp Reggie Ordonez Ken Vennera ____ #GoldStarFamilies #GoldStarMothers #HonorAndRemember #NeverForgotten #StrengthInSacrifice #SupportOurTroops #WarriorFamilies #UnitedInHonor #MilitaryFamilies #GratefulNation
