Wounded Warriors Family Support July 19, 2006

One picture is worth a thousand words...

The Swisher Family

Wounded Warriors Family Support hosted Stephanie and her children recently at our Bahama Bay Resort condominium. Her husband was a Marine captain killed during combat operations in the Euphrates River valley in October, 2005.


Your generous donations made this getaway possible for Stephanie and her family. Without your support nothing is possible.

Wounded Warriors Family Support is truly a grassroots organization that relies on you. Please forward to your friends and colleagues our newsletter and ask that they do likewise.

Semper Fidelis!

John Folsom


Dear Colonel Folsom,

I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the week stay at the Bahama Bay resort and the 7 day Disney tickets! We had the time of our lives and the kids are already begging to go back to Orlando! The resort was beautiful, peaceful, and the kids had as much fun playing at the pools as they did at Disney! As a matter of fact, they chose to take off 2 days of park hopping just to stay at the resort and relax. The staff was super friendly and the check in and check out was painless and easy. We had absolutely no problems with our stay. We ate at the resort restaurant twice and enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and service.

Since my husband was killed in October 2005, my kids have not had a chance to just be children and have some fun. They are paying the price for our freedom; the loss of their father. Wounded Warriors Family Support most generous donation of a week at the resort and Disney tickets was just the medicine that my children needed. They had an opportunity to have some fun, relax, and get their minds off of their sadness. The kids are doing well despite all that they have been through. We will continue to honor and remember their father every day and they will not forget his love or his sacrifice for them and our country.

Thank you for what you are doing for families like mine and families of the wounded. What you are doing is very generous and a big help to our morale and wellbeing.

I have attached a picture that was taken at Disney. Ashleigh is 16, Madison is 8, and Jacob is 6.

Thank you again for such a wonderful vacation of a lifetime!

Sincerely,

Stephanie, Ashleigh, Madison, and Jacob
