About this listen

 Bonnie Carroll was living in Alaska with her husband, Army Brigadier General Tom Carroll, and thought life truly couldn't get better. However, that mindset crumbled when her husband's National Guard plane never landed — killing him and seven of his fellow soldiers in 1992. The grief Bonnie felt after losing the love of her life was insurmountable, but she refused to let this pain settle without finding a way to make it purposeful. This Memorial Day, Bonnie joins Ben to discuss how that call to purpose led her to establish the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors — a national non-profit organization dedicated to providing compassionate care and resources to the families grieving a death in the active military or veteran community. She emphasizes the importance of finding meaning in the face of loss, and reminds us that on days like today, we must take a moment to stop, speak the names of the fallen and honor them by never forgetting who they are.
