Today we recognize the men and women who have given their lives in service to our country. You can help honor their sacrifice by remembering the spouses and children they leave behind. If you know a surviving family, please reach out to them. Take the time to call, text, or send an email. Such a gesture will mean everything and can make a real difference. We want to talk about our loved ones and share their stories. They are still so much a part of our lives and always will be. To families like mine and the spouses and children we serve we live with this day all year long. Part of our mission at The Sugar Bear Foundation is to raise awareness on behalf of Gold Star families so that others might understand what our lives are like after loss. It is an absolute honor for me to carry on Sugar Bear’s legacy of service, work alongside our amazing team, and give back to the families who have given their all.

Thank you,

Jennifer Carazo
Gold Star wife and Chairman
