Sunday September 29 is National Gold Star Mother's Day. On this solemn day, we honor the memories of the patriots who served our Nation, defended our freedom, and made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. We hold close to our hearts the Gold Star mothers and fathers, wives and husbands, sisters and brothers, daughters and sons, and other loved ones, who grieve their loss and carry on their legacy.
As we recognize Gold Star Mothers and Family Day, let us all remember that no one has given more for the nation than the families of the fallen; let them know they will never be forgotten.
