It’s an honor that nobody wants, but many here in San Antonio are familiar with — being a Gold Star Family.
The nation recognizes the sacrifice that all Gold Star Family members make when a father, mother, brother, sister, son, daughter, or other loved one dies in service to the nation.
It’s been two years, but for Larson, her husband Ryan’s death feels like yesterday. The Army Corporal left behind two young sons and a three-week-old daughter. “Long-term issues like he had the metal plates in his head, but it was ultimately those PTSD issues that no one wants to talk about. The addiction issue amongst the veteran community is huge, and I didn’t know much about it until I loved someone who went through it,” said Larson.
“They came alongside me and my children from everything, from needing help with VA benefits or finding someone to help watch my children,” said Larson.
