America's Gold Star Families, Inc and the Sgt. Anthony Maddox Memorial invites the community to attend the Fallen Heroes Tree at the Bloomington Airport by the baggage claim area.
During each event, Gold Star Families hang their heroes’ ornaments on the tree in memory of their hero’s life & service to our country. Immediately following the ceremony, the community is invited to assist in hanging the remaining fallen hero ornaments and the lighting of the tree follows. Each hero ornament includes the rank, name, date of birth and death, branch, and the home state of the fallen service men and women.
The program was established to honor our fallen military service members who died while serving on active duty and made the ultimate sacrifice. The events provide hope & healing for Gold Star families when holidays can be a challenging time.
