Family Focus Friday: Defeating The Dark

It was a love story so beautiful that Hollywood turned it into a movie.  But it was the tragedy and loss that happened off screen that led one woman to find the strength to survive.  Now she’s helping others to defeat the dark.

One woman’s perseverance in the wake of personal tragedy has helped thousands of friends and family of fallen servicemembers.  Bonnie Carroll recounts the story of how the grief over the loss of her husband, Brigadier General Tom Carroll, led her to create the organization which now provides aid and comfort to survivors.
