forever grateful
They have given their time and have risked their lives to serve our country. As you can imagine, their commitment also affects the lives of their loved ones. As we were thinking of Veterans Day and all that surrounds it, we thought it would be sweet to hear from Jack’s momma, Kathy, about what Jack’s service meant to her personally. 🥰

“I am proud that my child chose to take care of others. He has a strong sense of duty and strong sense of doing the right thing. He truly cares about the needs of others.”

For the first time in her life, Kathy saw another world and perspective that was difficult to understand until she had experienced it herself. She said her eyes were open to the sacrifices that are made every single day and how thankful she is, not only for her own son’s call of duty, but for all the other service men and women and their loved ones. 💖
“I am truly thankful for every service member who chooses to sign that contract to serve. Ultimately, they are giving up everything that they have to protect our country, their families, and their loved ones.”

Being a Veteran means a lifelong commitment. They wear this badge of honor today and every day. From the entire Antique Candle Co.® crew: Happy Veterans Day! Who are you celebrating, friend? Leave a comment below. 👇 We honor them with you. 💕
