The night featured a stunning performance of “God Bless America” by local youth, filling the museum with emotion, pride, and unity. Tish shared heartfelt stories about her father, reminding us all of the sacrifices made by service members and their families.

This special occasion also served a greater purpose—a fundraiser supporting United Through Reading, a nonprofit helping deployed service members stay connected with their children through storytime videos. The community came together in a powerful show of love, support, and storytelling.
